Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
6 ounces boiled ham (in one piece), cut into 1/2-inch dice
4 scallions (white and green), roughly chopped
1/2 cup grated white cheese (about 2 ounces), such as Monterey Jack, cheddar, or Gouda (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, beat together 3 of the eggs and season lightly with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a small non-stick skillet, with tight-fitting lid, over medium heat. Add the peppers and cook, covered, without stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the ham and scallions and cook, stirring frequently, until hot, about 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Melt a nut-sized piece of the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add 1/4 of the pepper mixture. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, stirring constantly with a heat-resistant rubber spatula, until just cooked, about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat and, using the rubber spatula, smooth over the top of the omelette so that it evenly covers the inside of the skillet. If using the cheese, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons over the omelette. Let rest for 30 seconds until the omelette has set.
  • Using the rubber spatula, fold the omelette in half, and transfer to a warmed plate. Cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 4 omelettes in all.

WESTERN OMELET RECIPE BY TASTY



Western Omelet Recipe by Tasty image

Looking for an omelet that's a bit less fussy and a little easier to make? Or maybe you're looking for a breakfast loaded with delicious fillings? This golden-brown-on-the-outside and flavorful-on-the-inside, American-style omelet is the one for you.

Provided by Matt Ciampa

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large eggs
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 teaspoons water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
¼ cup yellow onion, diced
¼ cup green bell pepper, diced
¼ cup red bell pepper, diced
⅓ cup deli ham, diced into 1/2 in (1/4 cm) cubes
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Add the eggs, ⅛ teaspoon salt, and the water to a medium bowl. Use a wire whisk or fork to beat until the whites and the yolks are completely combined, with no spots of egg white remaining. The mixture should flow off the whisk evenly. Let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 9- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and green and red peppers, season with salt, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the ham and cook until browned, 2-3 minutes. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a bowl.
  • Wipe the skillet clean, then add the remaining tablespoon of butter and melt over medium-high heat. Cook until the butter starts to brown, then pour in the egg mixture. As the eggs start to set, use a rubber spatula to push from the edges toward the center of the pan. Tilt the pan as needed to let the uncooked eggs run under the cooked eggs. Continue until the eggs are mostly set, about 1 minute. The top should still look wet, but not runny.
  • Remove the pan from heat and sprinkle the vegetable mixture and cheese over half of the omelet. Cover the pan with a lid and let sit for 1-2 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the omelet looks fluffy and cooked through.
  • Run a rubber spatula around the edge of the pan to loosen the omelet. Gently fold in half, then slide onto a serving plate. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and high-quality ingredients: Use fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese for the best flavor and texture. Opt for good-quality bread to elevate the overall taste of your sandwich.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: Keep a close eye on the eggs while cooking to prevent overcooking. Overcooked eggs will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Don't limit yourself to just cheese and ham. Experiment with different fillings such as bacon, sausage, sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, or spinach.
  • Add herbs and spices: Enhance the flavor of your omelet by adding herbs like chives, parsley, or basil. A dash of salt and pepper is also essential.
  • Cook the sandwich in butter: Butter adds a rich, golden-brown color and a delicious flavor to the sandwich. You can also use olive oil if you prefer.
  • Toast the bread: Toasting the bread adds a crispy texture and helps it hold up better to the fillings.

A classic Western omelet sandwich is a delectable and versatile breakfast or lunch option that is easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
