Ingredients
•
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
•
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
•
salt and pepper to taste
•
3 tablespoons butter, divided
•
8 large eggs, divided
Directions
1
Mix together cream cheese and cilantro in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
2
Heat 1/4 of the butter in a well-seasoned omelet pan or 8-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. When butter is hot and bubbling, swirl it around in the pan.
3
Just before butter begins to brown, beat 2 eggs and pour into the pan. Reduce heat.
4
After 10 seconds or so, omelet will coagulate. Push omelet to one side of the pan with a spoon or spatula to allow raw egg to flow onto the cleared skillet. Repeat this one more time, then remove the skillet from heat.
5
Dab 1/4 of the herbed cream cheese in a line along the middle of omelet. Season with salt and pepper. If omelet has not completely set, place the pan over medium heat for 30 more seconds.
6
Slide omelet from the pan onto a plate, so it rolls up, enclosing herbed cream cheese filling. Make 3 more omelets the same way.
