Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 150 grams Pork tenderloin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 small Red bell pepper
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 60 grams Feta cheese
- 30 grams Fresh spinach
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by prepping the ingredients. Thinly slice the pork tenderloin into small strips. Dice the red bell pepper and onion, halve the cherry tomatoes, and roughly chop the fresh parsley.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced pork, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-6 minutes or until the pork is no longer pink and starts to brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add diced onions and bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are soft. Then add the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the spinach to the vegetables and cook until wilted. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add milk, a pinch of salt and black pepper, then whisk until well combined.
Wipe the skillet clean, then place it back over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of olive oil if needed. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting it to ensure even coverage.
Cook the eggs for about 3 minutes, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to let uncooked eggs run underneath. When the omelette is mostly set, sprinkle the pork, sautéed vegetables, and crumbled feta cheese over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half over the filling. Let it cook for another minute to ensure the cheese melts.
Slide the omelette onto a serving plate, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
