Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Fresh parsley (2 tablespoons, chopped)
  • Kalamata olives (1/4 cup, pitted and sliced)
  • Feta cheese (1/2 cup, crumbled)
  • Eggs (4 large)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, crumbled feta cheese, sliced Kalamata olives, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
  4. Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette to let the uncooked eggs flow to the edges of the pan.
  5. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny in the center.
  6. Fold the omelette in half and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully cooked through.
  7. Carefully transfer the omelette to a plate and serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
