Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 cup white or cremini mushrooms
- 0.33 cup Swiss cheese
- 1 teaspoon chives (optional, for garnish)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until fully blended and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Clean and slice the mushrooms thinly. Set them aside.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it begins to foam.
Step 4
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly browned. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set them aside.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Swirl the pan gently to spread the eggs into an even layer.
Step 6
Cook the eggs for 2-3 minutes or until the edges begin to set, but the center is still slightly runny.
Step 7
Evenly distribute the sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese over one half of the omelet.
Step 8
Carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling using a spatula. Press gently to seal.
Step 9
Continue to cook for 1 more minute to melt the cheese and allow the omelet to fully set.
Step 10
Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with chopped chives, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
