Country Club Omelette
This omelette lets you feel like you're eating something really rich ... for breakfast! This recipe makes one omelette.
Country Club Omelette
3 eggs, beaten well
thinly-sliced cooked chicken or slices of deli turkey or chicken
1/8 cup diced tomato (I use 3 "grape" tomatoes)
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (or use REAL bacon bits)
1/2 to 1 ounce cheddar or Monterrey jack, shredded
Hollandaise sauce (recipe follows)
Have filling ingredients prepared before beginning to cook eggs.
Heat non-stick skillet and add a little butter or oil. Pour in eggs and turn heat to low. When edges of omelette are set, lift edge and tilt pan to let uncooked egg run underneath. When no more egg will run, spread toppings along the center of the omelette. Cover and allow to cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
Fold sides of omelette over the center and slide onto a plate.
Top with Hollandaise:
1 egg yolk
dash of white pepper, or black (if you have no white)
1 Tbsp. cream
1/8 c. butter
Whiz yolk, pepper and cream in the blender. In a small saucepan, heat butter on med-low heat until bubbly, but not browned. Start up blender again and drizzle hot butter into the yolk mixture. It will lighten and thicken.
Pour over omelette.
Serve!
