Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoons butter
• 0.5 cups diced onion
• 0.5 cups diced bell pepper (red or green)
• 0.5 cups diced cooked ham
• 0.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet completely.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and slightly golden.

Step 4

Add the diced cooked ham to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until heated through.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables and ham in the skillet.

Step 6

Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked through (the surface should look set and not runny).

Step 8

Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate or fold it in half before serving.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
