Western Omelet Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Chop the ham, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and scallions into small pieces.

2. 2

   Beat the Eggs

   In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and black pepper until well combined.

3. 3

   Cook the Vegetables

   In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped bell peppers and scallions. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender.

4. 4

   Add Ham

   Add the chopped ham to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.

5. 5

   Combine and Cook the Omelet

   Pour the beaten eggs over the ham and vegetables in the skillet. Cook on medium-low heat until the edges begin to set, then gently lift the edges with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath.

6. 6

   Finish Cooking

   Once the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, fold it in half and cook for another minute until fully set.

7. 7

   Serve

   Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.
