1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Once cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them drain on paper towels. Chop the bacon into small pieces.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
In the same skillet, use the bacon fat to sauté the onion (finely chopped) over medium heat until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the diced tomato and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.
3
Whisk the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the salt and pepper. Whisk them together until well combined and slightly frothy.

4
Cook the Omelette
In the same skillet, add the butter and let it melt over medium-low heat. Pour in the whisked eggs, tilting the skillet to ensure the eggs cover the bottom evenly. Let the eggs cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
5
Add Fillings
Once the edges are set, sprinkle the sautéed onion and tomato mixture over one half of the omelette. Then, add the chopped bacon and sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top.
6
Fold and Finish Cooking
Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half over the fillings. Let it cook for another minute until the cheese is melted and the inside is cooked to your preference.
7
Serve
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Serve hot and enjoy your Chef's Omelette!
