How to Make Smoked Salmon Omelet With Red Onions And Capers

  1. Whisk 4 large eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper in a large bowl until light and frothy.
  2. Melt 2 teaspoons butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Pour 3/4 cup of the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, until edges begin to set.
  4. Gently push the cooked edges toward the center, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Repeat until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist on top. If needed, cover the skillet briefly to help the top set.
  5. Distribute 1/4 of the 4 ounces smoked salmon evenly over one half of the omelet.
  6. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion and 1 teaspoon capers over the salmon.
  7. Dollop 2 tablespoons of cream cheese over the filling.
  8. Carefully fold the omelet in half using a spatula.
  9. Slide the omelet onto a plate. Repeat steps 3-9 to make 3 more omelets.
