Best 4 Michael Symon Omelet Recipes

COUNTRY-STYLE OMELET

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs until frothy and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ham and scallions and cook until the ham is browned and warmed through, then remove to a plate.
• Wipe the pan out and place it back over the heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and swirl around until melted, then add the eggs. Using a rubber spatula, move the outside edges of the eggs inward as they begin to set up. Continue to cook until the eggs are set and begin to get some color. Sprinkle the ham and cheese evenly over the surface of the eggs. When ready to serve, fold the omelet in half and slide out on to a plate.

PUFFY OMELET

Steps:

• Separate the egg yolks and whites into 2 separate medium bowls. Add 1 tablespoon of water to the egg whites and, using a hand mixer, beat on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Season the yolks with salt and pepper and beat until smooth, thickened and slightly pale in color. Fold one-third of the egg whites into the egg yolks and thoroughly mix until there are no streaks. Add half of the Gruyere and the soda water. Pour in the remaining egg whites and gently fold to combine.
• Melt the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until it foams, then pour in the egg mixture, smoothing the top. Cover the skillet and cook until the omelet is golden brown on the bottom and you can lift the edges to peak underneath, about 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle the remaining cheese and the herbs on top, cover the skillet and cook 2 more minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Fold over and serve.

WALK AWAY FOOLPROOF OMELET WITH DAD'S FILLING

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a bowl with 1 tablespoon water.
• Heat an 8- to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and heat until melted and frothy, about 30 seconds. Add the hot dog and brown for 1 minute. Add the onions and cook for 1 more minute. Add the eggs and swirl around the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cheese on top of the egg.
• Place the lid on the skillet, turn off the heat and walk away. Make some coffee, have an orange juice, make your toast, read the news, etc. Return in 5 to 7 minutes; the cheese should be melted and the eggs set. Roll up the omelet, place on a plate and serve. Enjoy!
