The Royal Reuben Omelet image

Well, St. Paddy's day was upon us and I was browsing recipes in Just a Pinch and stumbled upon this one that needed adopted. So, I added more goodies to fit my taste. Wow, talk about a "decadent omelet" this is it! Every bite is bursting with Reuben flavor and it is such a satisfying omelet too. I love the Shamrock toast to...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 oz corned beef, (from deli) torn
1/2 c sauerkraut
3 large eggs
2 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 bottle thousand island dressing or miracle whip's "secret burger sauce"
salt & pepper
CHEESE SAUCE AND SHAMROCK TOAST
1 - 2 Tbsp butter
1/4 c cream or half and half, (approx. give or take a little)
1 Tbsp flour
1/8 - 1/4 tsp dry mustard
1/2 c swiss cheese, shredded (try & get a good strong swiss)
dark rye or irish soda bread
shamrock cookie cutter
GARNISH
2 stalk(s) green onion, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Grill up your sliced corned beef and sauerkraut.
  • 2. If making this for a celebration for St. Paddy's day, go ahead and cut out your Shamrock bread to make toast.
  • 3. Beat your eggs and milk in a bowl with a little salt & pepper. Add to a heated pan w/hot oil and pour in. Now, swirl around a litte so that your omelet cooks evenly. Lift up the edges of egg mixture with spatula to allow uncooked egg to run under. Once it is almost cooked through add your hot corned beef, kraut on top and then squirt on your Thousand Island dressing.
  • 4. Fold over omelet in pan....this is a heavy omelet so use 2 spatulas so that it doesn't tear like mine did. No worries though if it does as you are going to add a swiss cheese sauce on top. Yumm
  • 5. Meanwhile, heat your butter on medium/low heat in a small pan and then add your flour; stir till combined. Then add your 1/4 cup of half and half and continue to stir. Add, your seasonings and shredded Swiss cheese. Whisk till completely melted and is a nice "pour" consistency. If it is too thick add more half & half.
  • 6. Since I live in a town with a few "Irish" folks, I was unable to find any Thousand Island dressing and found an amazing product called "Secret Burger Sauce". On the back of the bottle it reads: "Why go out to a burger joint when you enjoy this bold twist on thousand island flavor at home?." ---This worked perfectly!

This omelet was a bit too complicated to make. I think I would have liked it better if the recipe was simpler.

I'm not a big fan of cheese, so I omitted it from the recipe. The omelet was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the cheese.

This omelet was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used more milk or cream.

I've never had an omelet with sauerkraut before, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was actually really good! The sauerkraut added a nice tang to the omelet.

This omelet was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less butter.

This omelet was a little too spicy for me. I think I would have liked it better with less cayenne pepper.

I was skeptical about the combination of flavors in this omelet, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was actually really good! The sweetness of the apples balanced out the saltiness of the corned beef and sauerkraut. I would definitely make this again

I've made this omelet several times now and it's always a winner. The only thing I change is that I add a little bit of diced ham. It gives it an extra layer of flavor.

This is my new favorite omelet recipe. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love the way the cheese melts and the sauerkraut adds a nice tang. Highly recommend!
