Best Roasted Red Pepper Omelets Recipes

OMELET WITH PROSCIUTTO, ROASTED PEPPERS, FRESH MOZZARELLA, BASIL

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a bowl until light and fluffy and uniform in color.
• Melt some butter in a 6-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Sprinkle the beaten eggs with salt and black pepper. Add the eggs to the pan and lightly scramble them with a fork. Spoon a line along the center of the omelet with the cheese, roasted red pepper, prosciutto and basil. Roll the finished omelet onto a serving platter.

ROASTED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
• Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
• Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil over the peppers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

GRILLED PEPPER OMELET

Steps:

• Make sure peppers are nicely seasoned. Stir in chopped herbs if using.
• Break eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Whisk in salt and pepper to taste and milk if desired.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. When oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl pan to distribute eggs evenly over the surface. Shake pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other, to let eggs run underneath during the first minute of cooking.
• As soon as a few layers of egg are set on the bottom, spoon peppers down the middle of the egg "pancake" and sprinkle on Parmesan. Jerk pan quickly away from you then back toward you so the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle, jerk pan again so omelet folds over once more. Cook for up to a minute longer. Tilt pan and roll out onto a plate.
