Fresh Salsa Omelet Recipes

FRESH SALSA OMELET

Steps:

• To make the salsa, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
• To make the omelets, whisk together the eggs, 2 tablespoons water, salt and pepper just until blended but not frothy.
• In a 8" nonstick skillet, melt 1 teaspoons of the butter over medium heat.
• Pour one-quarter of the egg mixture into the skillet.
• Cook until almost set, gently lifting the edge with the spatula to allow any uncooked eggs to flow underneath, about 3 minutes.
• Spoon 1/3 cup of the salsa onto half of the omelet, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the cheese over the salsa.
• Fold the uncovered half over the top.
• Cook for 2 minutes.
• Slide onto a plate.
• Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Serve with the remaining salsa.

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.

Cut in half; slide each half onto a plate., Repeat with remaining butter, egg mixture and filling. Serve with salsa.
