Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 ounce, grated cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup fresh spinach
- 2 ounces, diced cooked chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is frothy.
Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until melted, swirling it to cover the entire base of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan, tilting to ensure even coverage.
As the eggs start to cook, gently pull the edges toward the center using a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the sides.
When the omelette is nearly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the cheddar cheese, spinach, and diced chicken on one half.
Fold the omelette in half using the spatula and let it cook for another minute, allowing the cheese to melt.
Slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy your high-protein omelette!
