How to Make Asparagus Mushroom And Cheese Omelet With Herbs

  1. Heat a medium (8-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes, until hot.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tablespoon of butter, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 tablespoon water, and a pinch of black pepper.
  4. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds.
  5. Arrange 1 cup of lightly steamed frozen asparagus spears in a single layer over one half of the eggs. Place 1/2 cup of thinly sliced fresh mushrooms down the center, and sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme leaves.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for approximately 3 minutes, or until the omelet is almost completely set around the edges.
  7. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded Gruyère cheese (or your preferred cheese) evenly over the omelet. Cover the pan and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is fully set.
  8. Remove from heat. Using a wide spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half.
  9. Gently slide the omelet onto a warmed plate.
  10. Drizzle with any remaining melted butter from the pan.
  11. Garnish with a fresh sprig of thyme.
