How to Make Open Faced Asparagus Omelet

  1. Preheat oven to broil. In an oven-safe skillet (with an oven-proof handle), heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the mushroom mixture from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel to remove excess oil and mushroom liquid.
  4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Coat the pan evenly.
  5. In a bowl, whisk together flour and milk until smooth. Stir in sour cream, eggs, parsley, and pepper.
  6. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared skillet. Cover and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until the top is almost set. Gently lift the edges of the omelet to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  7. Evenly sprinkle the cooked mushrooms over the omelet. Arrange the asparagus spears on top, in a spoke-like pattern.
  8. Sprinkle with Gruyère and Parmesan cheese.
  9. Place the skillet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
