In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites and skim milk together until the mixture is slightly frothy.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the egg mixture along with the salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the olive oil. Swirl the pan to distribute the oil evenly across the surface.
Pour the egg white mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the mixture evenly.
Let the omelette cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula to allow any uncooked egg whites to flow underneath.
Once the omelette is mostly cooked with a slightly wet surface, use a spatula to fold it in half.
Cook for another 1 minute to ensure it is fully set.
Carefully transfer the omelette to a plate and serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
