Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons shredded cheese
• 1 teaspoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl.

Step 2

Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Whisk the mixture until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter.

Step 4

Let the butter melt and cover the bottom of the skillet, watching that it doesn't brown.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to distribute it evenly.

Step 6

Allow the eggs to settle for a few seconds, then use a spatula to gently stir the eggs while shaking the pan in a circular motion, keeping the eggs in constant motion.

Step 7

Once the omelette is mostly cooked but still slightly moist on top, sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.

Step 8

Fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese and let it cook for another 30 seconds to a minute, allowing the cheese to melt.

Step 9

Carefully slide or flip the omelette onto a plate.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
