1
Cook the Brown Rice
If not already cooked, prepare the brown rice according to package instructions. Typically, combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 45 minutes until tender.
2
Prepare the Asparagus
In a skillet, heat half the olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus pieces and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still crisp. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
3
Cook the Chicken
If not pre-cooked, grill the chicken breast until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes per side depending on thickness. Once cooked, dice the chicken into small pieces.

4
Prepare the Egg Whites
In a bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
Cook the Omelette
In the same skillet used for the asparagus, add the remaining olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Pour in the whisked egg whites and let them cook for about 2 minutes until the edges start to set.
6
Add Fillings
Once the edges are set, add the diced grilled chicken and sautéed asparagus evenly over one half of the omelette. Allow to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the egg whites are fully set.
7
Fold and Serve
Gently fold the omelette in half over the fillings and let it cook for an additional minute. Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve with a side of cooked brown rice.
