Servings: 1
Ingredients
- Butter
- 1 tablespoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Jalapeno
- 1, diced (seeds removed for less heat)
- Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup, shredded
- Eggs
- 3 large
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs together with salt and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbly.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs cover the bottom evenly. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, or until the edges start to set.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and diced jalapeno over one half of the omelette.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling to create a half-moon shape.
- Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through but still fluffy.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot, garnished with extra jalapenos or cheese if desired.
