Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 small, finely chopped onion
- 0.5 medium, diced bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the sea salt and black pepper, then whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Step 2
In a non-stick skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it begins to turn translucent, about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the diced bell pepper to the pan with the onion and continue to sauté until the vegetables are softened, approximately 3 more minutes.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs cover the vegetables evenly.
Step 5
Allow the edges of the omelet to cook, then gently lift them with a spatula, tilting the pan further to let any uncooked eggs flow underneath. Repeat until the omelet is mostly cooked but still slightly soft on top.
Step 6
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the omelet and gently fold one side over the other using a spatula, creating a semi-circle shape.
Step 7
Cook for an additional minute to seal the omelet, then slide it onto a serving plate. Serve immediately.
