Omelette Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and measure them out.

  2. 2

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a mixing bowl, crack the 3 large eggs and add 2 tablespoons of milk. Whisk together until fully combined and slightly frothy.

  3. 3

    Add Seasonings

    Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the egg mixture. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Cook the Spinach

    In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 cup of spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted.

  5. 5

    Add Chicken

    Stir in 1 cup of cooked chicken breast into the skillet with the spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until warmed through.

  6. 6

    Pour in Egg Mixture

    Pour the egg mixture over the cooked spinach and chicken in the skillet, tilting the pan to evenly distribute the eggs.

  7. 7

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle 1 cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the omelette.

  8. 8

    Cook the Omelette

    Allow the omelette to cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges start to lift from the pan. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help the top set.

  9. 9

    Fold and Serve

    Once the omelette is fully cooked, gently fold it in half and slide it onto a serving plate. Serve warm.
