ITALIAN HAM AND CHEESE OMELET



Italian Ham and Cheese Omelet image

My daughter just made this omelet for lunch. We are both rather small-portion eaters, so the recipe serves 2. But there are only 2 eggs in it, so it could be a large serving for one person. Feel free to vary the ingredients. We used leftover Christmas ham in this one (a honey-baked ham), but Prosciutto Cotto (Italian cooked ham) is another option.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large eggs
3 tablespoon(s) cream
1/2 teaspoon(s) dried italian seasoning
1 dash(es) salt and pepper
1 tablespoon(s) butter or olive oil
1/4 cup(s) shredded sharp cheese
1 1/2 ounce(s) ham, chopped
1 tablespoon(s) grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Whisk together the eggs, cream, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Melt the butter or heat the oil in a 9" skillet over a (lowish) medium flame.
  • When heated, pour the eggs into the pan. Lower heat to prevent burning. Shake pan to prevent sticking. Lift up edges of omelet to allow uncooked eggs to run underneath.
  • When eggs are partially set, sprinkle in grated cheese and the ham. Keep cooking until eggs are softly set in the middle of the omelet. Sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese.
  • NOTE: It helps if you cover the pan while it's cooking, as the steam cooks the top of the omelet. But check it every few seconds to prevent scorching or over-cooking.
  • Fold Omelet over by about 1/3. Flip pan to turn out on plate, folding over the other 1/3, for a rolled omelet effect. Cut in half to serve.
