Green Chile and Cheese Omelet

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Filling

   • Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a small skillet over medium heat.
   • Add the finely chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
   • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30-60 seconds until fragrant.
   • Add the diced green chiles and 1/4 tsp of salt. Cook for 2 minutes until everything is heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. 2

   Whisk the Eggs

   • In a medium bowl, crack the eggs. Add the milk, the remaining 1/2 tsp of salt, and the black pepper.
   • Whisk vigorously for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture is pale yellow, completely uniform, and slightly frothy. This incorporates air for a fluffier omelet.
3. 3

   Cook the Omelets (One at a time)

   • Heat an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1/2 tbsp of the remaining butter and swirl to coat the pan.
   • Pour 1/4 of the egg mixture (about 1/2 cup) into the hot skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, until the edges begin to set.
