Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the unsalted butter and let it melt, tilting the pan to coat the surface evenly.
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbly (but not browned), pour in the egg mixture and let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently push the cooked edges of the egg toward the center of the pan, allowing the uncooked egg to flow to the edges. Repeat this process until the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
Sprinkle the cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses evenly over one half of the omelet.
Using the spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the cheese-filled portion. Press gently to seal.
Allow the omelet to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked to your desired doneness.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
