Ingredients
- 3 units large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons milk
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk and black pepper, and whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, coating the bottom of the skillet evenly.
Step 3
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Step 4
As the egg begins to set, gently lift the edges with a spatula, letting the uncooked eggs flow to the hot skillet surface.
Step 5
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, tilting occasionally, until the top of the omelet is slightly soft but set.
Step 6
Sprinkle the finely chopped chives over one half of the omelet.
Step 7
Gently fold the omelet in half using a spatula and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Step 8
Slide the omelet onto a serving plate. Garnish with extra chives if desired and serve immediately.
