Who doesn’t like Omelets for breakfast? It’s healthy, light in the tummy and easy to prepare especially when you’re in a morning rush. Here’s a Tex-Mex, or should I rather call it Texican Omelet for you to enjoy.
Texan Omelet
Have a hearty and healthy breakfast to start the day right with Texan Omelet.
Ingredients:
- olive oil - 1 tbsp
- green bell pepper - 1/4 cup (finely chopped)
- red bell pepper - 1/4 cup (finely chopped)
- onion - 1/4 cup (chopped)
- canned chopped green chiles/chillies - 2 tbsp
- black olives - 2 tbsp (chopped)
- grated cheese - 1/2 cup
- eggs - 5
- milk - 1 tbsp
- cumin - 1/4 tsp (ground)
- ground black pepper - to taste
- butter - 2 tbsp
- cilantro - chopped
- sour cream -
Instructions:
- In a small non-stick skillet, sauté the bell peppers and onions in the olive oil just until softened.
- Remove from heat and stir in the green chiles and olives. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cumin and black pepper until blended.
- Melt the butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Swirl it around and up the sides of the skillet to coat.
- When the butter begins to foam, pour in the eggs.
- Let the eggs cook for about 30 seconds, then begin running the spatula around the sides of the pan, lifting the edges of the omelet. Uncooked egg from the top will flow underneath.
- You can tilt the pan a little to encourage the flow. Keep this up until the top surface is almost dry for 3 or 4 minutes.
- Spoon the sautéed vegetables evenly over the omelet surface and follow with the grated cheese. Turn off heat.
- Take the spatula and run it about halfway under the omelet. Lift that side and fold the omelet in half. Slide the folded omelet back into the center of the pan, and let stand for a few seconds to allow cheese to melt.
- Cut into portions and serve.
- Prepare sour cream and cilantro for garnish.
