1
Prepare the Ingredients
Chop the green bell pepper and onion into small pieces. If the shrimp are not pre-cooked, you may want to steam or sauté them briefly until they turn pink.
2
Beat the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack 4 large eggs and add salt and black pepper. Whisk them together until fully combined.

3
Cook the Vegetables
In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until they are tender.
4
Add the Shrimp
If the shrimp are raw, add them to the skillet with the vegetables and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they are fully cooked and pink. If they are pre-cooked, just add them to the skillet for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
5
Add the Egg Mixture
Pour the beaten eggs over the shrimp and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Gently stir with a spatula to combine everything evenly.
6
Cook the Omelette
Allow the omelette to cook undisturbed for about 3-5 minutes on medium-low heat, or until the edges start to set. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help it cook through. Once the bottom is set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
7
Fold and Serve
Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese. Once done, slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
