Chicken and Morel Mushroom Omelet Recipe

Ingredients

3 eggs
1/4 cup cooked chicken, chopped
1/4 cup fresh morel mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a small non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced morel mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until golden brown.
Add the chopped chicken to the skillet and sauté for another minute.
Remove the mushroom and chicken mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat the same skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter
Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Once the edges start to set, use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelet and allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
Once the egg is no longer runny, spoon the mushroom and chicken mixture over half of the omelet and sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
Using the spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelet over the mushroom and chicken mixture.
Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot.

Verdict

This chicken and morel mushroom omelet is a perfect breakfast or brunch dish that is easy to make and full of flavor. The combination of savory chicken, earthy morel mushrooms, and melty cheddar cheese is delicious and satisfying. Serve it with a side of toast or fruit for a complete meal.
