Servings: 2
Calories: 412kcal
Equipment
- Cast Iron Skillet
Ingredients
- 4 oz ham (slice into thin strips)
- 1/2 cup cheese (shredded)
- 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
- 1 tbsp butter
- 4 eggs (large)
- 2 tbsp milk
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Heat the butter in an 12-inch skillet over medium heat.
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk with a fork until well beaten.
- Whisk in 2 tbsp of milk, salt, and pepper.
- Slowly pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet.
- Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the eggs.
- When the eggs started to bubble, pull the edges into the middle and tilt the pan to fill in the edges.
- While the middle is still a little runny, sprinkle the ham, cheese, and onions over top.
- With your spatula fold the omelet in half, then remove from the skillet, cut in half and serve.
Notes
If you have a smaller skillet (8 inch) make each omelet serving, individually. Cheese: use any strong tasting cheese of your choice (yellow cheddar, white cheddar, jack, mozzarella, feta).
