Creamy herbed goat cheese melts into the warm eggs while sweet sun-dried tomatoes add bursts of concentrated flavor.
This restaurant-quality omelet comes together in just 30 minutes.
Kitchen Tips
- Saute vegetables first: Cook them until tender before making the omelet
- Use a non-stick pan: Essential for easy folding and sliding the omelet out
- Whisk eggs with cream: This creates a tender, fluffy texture
- Spread cheese on eggs: Add it while the eggs are still wet so it melts properly
- Don’t overcook: Remove from heat while the center is still slightly soft
- Follow basic omelet technique: Tilt and fold according to standard methods
Variations
- Substitute feta or cream cheese for the goat cheese
- Add spinach or arugula with the vegetables
- Use button mushrooms if shiitakes aren’t available
