Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup (sliced) button mushrooms
- 0.5 cup (shredded) Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and whisk together with milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, then add the olive oil and butter. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the mushrooms are soft and have released their moisture. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel, then return it to medium-low heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan slightly to spread the eggs evenly. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes or until the edges begin to set and the surface is slightly glossy.
Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms and shredded Swiss cheese over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, gently fold the uncovered half of the omelet over the filled half, forming a half-moon shape. Press lightly to seal.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and ensure the omelet is fully cooked through, but still tender.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy your Mushroom Swiss Cheese Omelet!
