Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized Potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 small, diced Onion
• 1 cup, diced Ham
• 1 cup, cooked and drained Black beans
• 6 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional) Parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly (about 1/8-inch thick). Set aside.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the potatoes and cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and lightly golden. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and ham, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until the onion is softened and the ham is lightly browned.

Step 5

Stir in the black beans and return the cooked potatoes to the skillet. Mix gently to combine, then spread the mixture evenly across the skillet.

Step 6

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika until fully blended.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the potato, ham, and bean mixture in the skillet. Make sure the eggs coat everything evenly.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low and cook the omelet undisturbed for about 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly runny.

Step 9

Preheat the broiler on high. Place the skillet under the broiler and cook for 2-3 minutes until the top of the omelet is fully set and lightly golden. Keep a close eye to avoid over-browning.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven (use oven mitts as the handle will be hot). Let the omelet cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
