Cheesy Country Omelet Recipes

CLASSIC CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Combine eggs and milk in bowl; beat with fork or whisk until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
• Melt butter in 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling; pour egg mixture into hot skillet. Cook 30 seconds or until bottom is set. Run heat proof spatula around edge of pan, lifting edges of eggs and allowing uncooked portions to flow underneath. Tilt pan, if necessary. Continue cooking, lifting eggs as needed, 1-2 minutes or until almost set.
• Remove from heat. Sprinkle cheese over half of omelet. Carefully fold other side of omelet over cheese. Carefully slide omelet onto serving plate. Sprinkle with parsley, if desired.

CHEESY BAKED SUPPER OMELET

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Spray 12x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In 8-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
• In large bowl, beat eggs, sour cream, salt and pepper with wire whisk until well blended. Stir in bell pepper mixture and cheese. Pour into baking dish.
• Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes or until eggs are set. Cut omelet into squares to serve.

COUNTRY-STYLE OMELET

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs until frothy and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ham and scallions and cook until the ham is browned and warmed through, then remove to a plate.
• Wipe the pan out and place it back over the heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and swirl around until melted, then add the eggs. Using a rubber spatula, move the outside edges of the eggs inward as they begin to set up. Continue to cook until the eggs are set and begin to get some color. Sprinkle the ham and cheese evenly over the surface of the eggs. When ready to serve, fold the omelet in half and slide out on to a plate.

CHEESY COUNTRY OMELET

Steps:

• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in medium nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add potatoes and red peppers; cook 8 to 10 min. or until tender, stirring frequently. Transfer to bowl.
• Whisk eggs and black pepper until blended.
• Heat remaining oil in same skillet. Add eggs; cook 2 to 3 min. or until almost set, occasionally lifting edge with spatula and tilting skillet to allow uncooked portion to flow underneath. Top with vegetables and cheese; cook until egg mixture is set but top is still slightly moist. Slip spatula underneath omelet, tip skillet to loosen and gently fold omelet in half. Cook 1 to 2 min. Slide or flip onto plate; cut in half.

CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with a whisk. Add milk and season with salt and white pepper. Whisk for a few minutes until egg mixture is foamy; beating in air makes the omelette fluffy.
• Melt butter in a small, nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in egg mixture and twirl skillet so bottom is evenly covered with egg. Cook for 1 minute until egg starts to set. Lift edges with a spatula and tilt the skillet so uncooked egg mixture can run towards the bottom of the skillet to set. Repeat until no visible liquid egg remains.
• Carefully flip omelette and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Sprinkle Emmentaler cheese in one line in the middle of the omelette and fold omelette in half. Cook for 20 seconds, then slide omelette onto plate.

CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Equipment: 9-inch non-stick skillet and an immersion blender
• Add oil to the skillet over high heat, and heat it until small hairline ripples appear on the surface of the oil.
• Break the eggs into tall glass or frappe cup and whisk to blend for 1 minute. (The Waffle House uses a 15,000 rpm malt shop mixer.)
• While moving the skillet in a circular motion, pour in the eggs. Continue to move the skillet in a circular motion, allowing the outside of the eggs to cook and fluff up. When the outside edges have firmly cooked, flip the omelet and cook on the other side for approximately 30 seconds. Keep moving the pan in a circular motion, but not as often as before it was flipped. (Too much movement at this time will cause the omelet to fall.) Flip the omelet once more to finish cooking--no more than 30 additional seconds.
• Overlap 2 slices of American cheese in the center of the omelet in a diamond shape.
• Fold the omelet in half, being certain to cover the cheese slices, and slide it onto your plate.
