Ingredients
- Eggs
- 4 large
- Turkey breast, cooked and diced
- 1 cup
- Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup
- Butter
- 2 tablespoons
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Hot sauce (optional)
- to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add salt and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs spread evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set and the bottom is lightly golden.
- Once the edges are set, sprinkle the diced turkey and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling, pressing down gently with a spatula. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with fresh parsley, and drizzle with hot sauce if desired. Serve hot.
Tips
- For a spicy kick, add diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of chili flakes to the egg mixture.
- Feel free to substitute the turkey with other proteins such as ham, bacon, or sautéed vegetables for a vegetarian version.
- Pair with whole grain toast or a fresh side salad to create a complete meal.
