Hotel-Style Omelette
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
- 1 stalk green onion, sliced
- 30 grams ground chicken (preferably from a marinated chicken recipe)
- 1 slice smoked ham, diced
- 2-3 champignon mushrooms, chopped (optional)
- 100 ml heavy cream
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- A pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it begins to foam.
-
Sauté Aromatics: Add the chopped onion and green onion to the skillet. Sauté until fragrant and the onions are translucent.
-
Cook the Meat: Add the ground chicken, diced ham, and mushrooms (if using). Continue cooking until the chicken is browned and all ingredients are well-caramelized.
-
Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir frequently to ensure the chicken is fully cooked and the flavors meld.
-
Incorporate Eggs: Slowly pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, stirring gently to combine with the cream mixture. Continue stirring until the eggs are almost set.
-
Form the Omelette: Use a spatula to divide the egg mixture into two compact sections. Allow the omelette to cook undisturbed for a moment.
-
Flip and Finish: Carefully flip each section of the omelette. Cook briefly, ensuring the center remains moist.
-
Garnish and Serve: While still hot, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to taste. Serve immediately with a side of fermented chili sauce if desired (though the omelette is delicious on its own).
Enjoy this rich, flavorful omelette for a satisfying breakfast or brunch!
