Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 100 grams chorizo
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is fully blended and slightly frothy.

Step 2

In a non-stick skillet, over medium heat, add half of the olive oil or butter and allow it to melt.

Step 3

Add the chorizo to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until it is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside in a small bowl.

Step 5

Reduce heat to medium-low, and in the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil or butter, then add the egg mixture.

Step 6

Let the eggs cook undisturbed until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.

Step 8

Once the eggs are almost set, sprinkle the cooked chorizo, baby spinach, and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.

Step 9

Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling and let cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until the cheese has melted.

Step 10

Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
