Cilantro Red Onion And Jalapeno Omelet Recipes

PICKLED JALAPENOS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Put the jalapenos and red onions in a 16-ounce wide-mouth mason jar.
• In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, sugar, salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
• Pour the hot liquid over the veggies in the jar, screw on the lid and set aside. When it has cooled to room temperature, transfer the jar to the fridge to chill for a minimum of an hour, which will allow the vegetables to pickle. The pickles will last in the fridge for 3 days. Serve them on pulled pork sandwiches.

AVOCADO, SALSA, AND CILANTRO OMELET

Steps:

• Using a fork (for good control), beat eggs with 1 teaspoon water until yolks and whites are completely combined and no streaks remain. The water helps incorporate them and steams while the omelet cooks, which puffs it up. Season with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt and a few cracks of pepper.
• Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until foaming; swirl to coat. When foam subsides, pour eggs into center of skillet. Let stand 10 seconds. Stir eggs with a rubber spatula in a circular motion with one hand while shaking skillet with the other, about 15 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. Working your way around skillet, gather outer set eggs toward center, then tip skillet so runny eggs move to outside edges, about 1 minute. Lightly spread any remaining runny eggs evenly over top and cook until creamy but no longer wet.
• Lightly press 6 thin slices of avocado into far side of omelet (this prevents them from sliding around), and add 1 tablespoon each chunky red salsa and chopped fresh cilantro leaves before folding. Remove from heat. Tip pan away from you; gently slide spatula under near side of omelet and fold up and over avocado, cilantro and salsa. Slide onto a warm plate. Top with additional chopped cilantro leaves, if desired, and serve.
