How to Make Mushroom Swiss Cheese Omelet

  1. Whisk 3 large eggs at room temperature with 2 tablespoons of heavy cream until light and frothy.
  2. In a separate skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until mushrooms are tender.
  3. Stir in a pinch of red pepper flakes (to taste), 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives, and 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat, gently stirring with a fork until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly wet.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
  6. Carefully fold the unfilled half of the omelet over the cheese-filled half.
  7. Reduce heat to low. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the omelet is heated through.
  8. If you have a hard time flipping you can carefully cut it in half before serving.
  9. Garnish with extra fresh chives and serve immediately.
