Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and add the salt and black pepper. Beat the eggs thoroughly until the yolks and whites are well combined.
- Place a medium-sized non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Allow it to warm up, then add the butter. Let the butter melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for a minute or so, until the edges start to set.
- Sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack cheese evenly over one half of the omelet. Then spoon the tuna mixture on top of the cheese, still focusing on one half of the omelet.
- Carefully use a spatula to fold the other half of the omelet over the side with the tuna and cheese. Press gently to ensure it is sealed.
- Allow the omelet to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully cooked through. You can cover the skillet with a lid to hasten the melting and ensure even cooking.
- Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
- Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your delicious and savory Tuna Melt Omelet with Celery and Parsley!
Tips:
- Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid a watery filling.
- Finely chop the onion, celery, and parsley to distribute flavors evenly.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking and to flip it easily.
- Cook the omelet on medium-low heat to ensure it cooks thoroughly without burning.
- Add the cheese at the right moment to ensure it melts perfectly.
With its delightful combination of tender tuna, crisp celery, aromatic parsley, and gooey melted cheese, the tuna melt omelet is a nourishing and satisfying dish. This recipe is easy to follow and results in a flavorful meal that can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Serve it hot and enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors and textures!
