Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 8 pieces medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 0.25 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the butter. Once melted, add the chopped green onions and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables, spreading the mixture evenly over the surface.
Allow the eggs to set slightly, about 2-3 minutes, then arrange the cooked shrimp evenly over one half of the omelette.
Continue to cook until the omelette is mostly set, about 2 more minutes. Carefully flip one side of the omelette over the shrimp side to enclose the filling.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm.
