Garnish with fresh herbs and enjoy your homemade masterpiece hot from the skillet!
In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
If using optional ingredients like cheese, herbs, or pre-cooked vegetables/proteins, set them aside for later use.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and evenly coat the surface of the skillet.
Once the butter is fully melted and slightly bubbling, reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center of the pan, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the edges. Repeat this process for 1-2 minutes until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
If adding cheese, herbs, or other fillings, sprinkle them evenly over one half of the omelet at this stage.
Using the spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half to cover the fillings (if any). Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute until the cheese melts or the omelet is fully set.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Garnish with additional herbs if desired.
