How to Make Open Faced Bacon And Hash Browns Omelet

  1. Cook bacon in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.
  2. Add thawed hash browns to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Stir in the green onions, jalapeño (if using), and tomatoes. Cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the hash brown mixture.
  5. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and hot sauce until light and frothy.
  6. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the hash brown mixture in the skillet.
  7. Cook over medium heat, gently lifting the edges of the omelet with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist (about 5-7 minutes).
  8. Sprinkle grated cheese over the omelet.
  9. If desired, broil for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese completely.
  10. Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Slice into wedges if desired.
