Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 1 cup crab meat or cooked shrimp (peeled, deveined, and chopped)
• 2 tablespoons green onions (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons red bell pepper (finely diced)
• 2 tablespoons milk or cream
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Stir in the milk or cream, and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

If using shrimp, ensure it is peeled, deveined, and chopped into bite-sized pieces. If using crab meat, ensure it is clean and free of shells.

Step 3

In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for 1-2 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Stir in the green onions and your choice of crab meat or shrimp. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the seafood is heated through. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set.

Step 7

Sprinkle the cooked seafood and vegetable mixture evenly over one half of the omelette.

Step 8

Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Let it cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the filling is warmed through.

Step 9

Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half if serving two, and serve it warm.
