Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
5 cups baby arugula
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
1/2 cup torn roasted red peppers
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, pulled apart into thin strips

Steps:

  • Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Add the arugula, olives and roasted red peppers but don't toss yet (you don't want the arugula to wilt). Set aside while you prepare the omelets.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add about 1 teaspoon olive oil, then pour in 1/2 cup of the egg mixture and stir gently with a rubber spatula to distribute the egg in the bottom of the pan. Cook until the eggs are just set but the underside is not brown, about 4 minutes, then slide the omelet onto a plate. Repeat to make 3 more omelets, adding about 1 more teaspoon oil to the skillet between each.
  • Toss the arugula salad, then pile on top of the omelets. Scatter the feta and prosciutto on top.

Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned pan: This will help to prevent the eggs from sticking and will give them a nice, even cook.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many eggs to the pan at once, they will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick.
  • Cook the eggs slowly over low heat: This will help to ensure that they cook through evenly without burning.
  • Don't flip the eggs too often: Flipping the eggs too often will break them up and make them more difficult to cook evenly.
  • Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the eggs and allow the uncooked egg to flow to the bottom of the pan.
  • Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish the eggs with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, vegetables, or herbs.

Conclusion:

Open-faced omelets are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a great way to use up leftover vegetables and cheese, and they can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you can make perfect open-faced omelets every time.
