Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 units large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk and black pepper, and whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, coating the bottom of the skillet evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
As the egg begins to set, gently lift the edges with a spatula, letting the uncooked eggs flow to the hot skillet surface.
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, tilting occasionally, until the top of the omelet is slightly soft but set.
Sprinkle the finely chopped chives over one half of the omelet.
Gently fold the omelet in half using a spatula and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Slide the omelet onto a serving plate. Garnish with extra chives if desired and serve immediately.
