Start your day with a spicy kick by making this quick and flavorful Solo Green Chili Cheese Omelette—a perfect breakfast or brunch option for one! This dish combines the fluffiness of whisked eggs with the zesty heat of freshly chopped green chili and the gooey indulgence of melted cheddar or mozzarella cheese. Ready in just 10 minutes, this easy-to-follow recipe is cooked to perfection with a golden, buttery finish. Ideal for spice lovers, this omelette strikes a balance between creamy and bold flavors, making it a satisfying single-serving meal. Serve it hot with a side of toast or fresh avocado slices for a wholesome, protein-packed start to your day.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl, add salt and black pepper, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly fluffy.
Finely chop the green chili and set aside. Adjust the quantity depending on your spice tolerance.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, spreading it across the surface as it melts.
Once the butter begins to foam, pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and tilt it gently to spread the eggs evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped green chili evenly over the surface of the eggs while they are still raw.
Allow the omelette to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set but the center is still slightly runny.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over one half of the omelette, then use a spatula to carefully fold the other half over the cheese-covered side.
Let the omelette cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, allowing the cheese to melt completely and the eggs to finish cooking.
Transfer the omelette to a plate, garnish with additional green chili or herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
