Yield 1 omelet

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 eggs
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 thin slices avocado
1 tablespoon chunky red salsa
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro leaves, plus more for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Using a fork (for good control), beat eggs with 1 teaspoon water until yolks and whites are completely combined and no streaks remain. The water helps incorporate them and steams while the omelet cooks, which puffs it up. Season with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt and a few cracks of pepper.
  • Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until foaming; swirl to coat. When foam subsides, pour eggs into center of skillet. Let stand 10 seconds. Stir eggs with a rubber spatula in a circular motion with one hand while shaking skillet with the other, about 15 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. Working your way around skillet, gather outer set eggs toward center, then tip skillet so runny eggs move to outside edges, about 1 minute. Lightly spread any remaining runny eggs evenly over top and cook until creamy but no longer wet.
  • Lightly press 6 thin slices of avocado into far side of omelet (this prevents them from sliding around), and add 1 tablespoon each chunky red salsa and chopped fresh cilantro leaves before folding. Remove from heat. Tip pan away from you; gently slide spatula under near side of omelet and fold up and over avocado, cilantro and salsa. Slide onto a warm plate. Top with additional chopped cilantro leaves, if desired, and serve.

Number Of Ingredients 23

AVACADO TOMATO SALSA FRESCA
3 tomatoes, diced
1 avocado, pitted, and cut into ¼-inch dice.
3 green onions, white and light green parts,
thinly sliced
I small jalapeflo chili seeds removed and finely chopped .
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
CRABMEAT OMELET
8 ounces cook
crabmeat, picked oveR and shells removed
1 small red bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed and finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives
Juice of 1 lemon
8 eggs
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese
1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and sliced
4 sprigs fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • 1. To make the salsa fresca: In a glass or ceramic bowl, gently stir together the tomatoes, avocado, green onions, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to blend the flavors. 2. To make the omelet: Arrange the broiler rack about 5 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler. In a small bowl, toss together the crabmeat, bell pepper, chives, and lemon juice. Set aside. 3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until frothy. In an ovenproof skillet over medium heat, warm 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add half of the egg mixture, stir briefly, and then let the eggs begin to set around the edges. Using a spatula, lift the edges and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to run underneath. Cook until the eggs are almost set but still moist. 4. Spread half of the crabmeat mixture over half of the eggs. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Fold the uncovered half of the eggs over the filling. Cut the cheese into 8 equal slices and arrange 4 slices on top. Place the pan in the broiler and cook until the cheese melts, about 30 seconds. Slide the omelet onto a warmed serving plate and keep warm. Make a second omelet with the remaining ingredients. 5 Cut each omelet in half and arrange on warmed plates. Garnish each omelet with a few slices of avocado and a cilantro sprig. Divide the salsa among 4 ramekins and serve with the omelets.

AVOCADO SALSA



Avocado Salsa image

Fresh tomatillos bring tanginess to this silky avocado salsa, and that acidity keeps the blend green even after days in the fridge. For more heat, double the chiles and keep all their seeds. If you don't have a food processor, you can make this in a blender, but you may need to add a splash of water to purée the ingredients at the start.

Tips:

  • Use ripe avocados: For the best flavor and texture, use ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure.
  • Choose fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salsa. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The omelet should be cooked until it is just set, but not overcooked. Otherwise, it will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: The omelet is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will prevent the eggs from drying out.

Conclusion:

This avocado salsa and cilantro omelet is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. The creamy avocado salsa is the perfect complement to the fluffy eggs, and the cilantro adds a fresh, zesty flavor. This omelet is sure to please everyone at the table.
