Ingredients

• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.125 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Fresh chives, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Beat the mixture with a whisk or fork until the eggs and cream are fully integrated and slightly frothy.

Step 2

In a non-stick skillet, heat the butter over medium-low heat until fully melted and just starting to foam. Tilt the pan occasionally to ensure the bottom is evenly coated with butter.

Step 3

Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Allow the eggs to sit for a few moments until they begin to set around the edges.

Step 4

Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the eggs in a circular motion while simultaneously shaking the pan with your other hand. This encourages curds to form but prevents the eggs from sticking to the pan.

Step 5

Continue to stir the eggs delicately until they are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Reduce heat to low and allow the omelet to sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to finish cooking. It should be just set but still creamy and soft.

Step 7

Gently push one side of the omelet towards the center using a spatula to fold it over in thirds like a letter.

Step 8

Tilt the pan to allow the omelet to slide onto a plate, seam side down. Clean up the edges with the spatula if necessary.

Step 9

If desired, garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately while the omelet is warm and buttery.
