Chicken Omelette


This quick meal is the perfect way to use up leftovers. 

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 5-10 minutes
Serves: 1

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk (you can use water for even less calories)
  • (Left-over) cooked chicken slices or blocks (you can also shred chicken pieces)
  • 1 mushroom - thinly sliced
  • A few baby spinach leaves
  • Feta - crumbled up
  • Cheddar cheese - grated
  • About a 1/4 avocado - sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

The quantity of each ingredient really depends on your taste and how much leftovers you have. I didn't have baby spinach, so I just left it out.  



METHOD:

  1. Prepare the egg mixture by whisking together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper.
  2. Prepare all the other ingredients.
  3. Use a medium-sized pan, initially on high heat - pour in the egg mixture and layer your filling ingredients.
  4. As it starts to cook, turn the heat down to medium and cover the pan with a lid. Cook covered for about 5 minutes. Check every two minutes or so - it's done when the egg is cooked and cheese is melted. 
  5. The last step is to flip the one half over, to close the omelette.
