Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken (diced or shredded)
- 1/4 cup bell pepper (diced)
- 1/4 cup onion (diced)
- 1/4 cup spinach (chopped)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: herbs like parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: If not already done, cook and dice the chicken. Dice the bell pepper and onion, and chop the spinach.
- Beat Eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with a fork or whisk until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Cook Vegetables: Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the bell pepper and onion, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Add Chicken and Spinach: Add the diced chicken and spinach to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted and the chicken is heated through.
- Pour in Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Tilt the skillet to spread the eggs evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the eggs start to set around the edges.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheese over one half of the omelette.
- Fold and Cook: Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, gently fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- Serve: Slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.
Enjoy your delicious Chicken Omelette!
