A light and fluffy omelette infused with fresh herbs, perfect for a nutritious and quick main dish. This recipe highlights the natural richness of eggs with a burst of flavor from parsley and chives.

Main Dish

Steps

In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Stir in the chopped parsley and chives.
Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and slightly bubbling.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until edges begin to set.
Gently lift the edges with a spatula, tilting the pan to let uncooked eggs flow underneath.
When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, fold it in half.
Cook for another 30 seconds, then slide onto a plate and serve immediately.

Tips for Fluffy Herb Omelette

A tender omelette should look softly set and glossy rather than browned; residual heat will finish the center.
Use a flexible silicone or nylon spatula to loosen the delicate egg without scratching a non-stick pan.
Chop the herbs finely so they spread evenly and do not weigh down the airy egg.

Drink pairing

A crisp, dry sparkling wine
Its lively acidity complements the buttery eggs and fresh, savory herbs without overpowering their delicate flavor.

0% option: Sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and use within 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot; the omelette may lose some of its fluffiness.
