Recipe 5: Chicken Omelette
In France, they have a special relationship with omelette. For them, an omelet is not scrambled eggs. Omelette is the first dish! Therefore, various ingredients are selected for its preparation. Let's prepare the following ingredients: chicken breast – 150g; tomato – 2 pcs. bell pepper of different colors – 2 pcs.; olive oil - 2 tbsp; milk – 125 ml; basil - a bunch; zucchini – 1 pc.; eggs – 6 pcs.; salt and pepper - to taste.
Chicken meat can be cut into small strips and fried in a frying pan, or you can pre-boil it, cut into strips and just simmer with vegetables. We choose the second option.
Pour olive oil into the pan. Cut tomatoes and peppers into cubes. First, add the tomato cubes to the pan. After they release their liquid, add the peppers and leave to simmer until the peppers absorb the liquid. We do not peel the zucchini, but only cut it into cubes. Add to the vegetables and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Now put the chicken meat into the frying pan, add salt and pepper to taste, cover the frying pan with a lid and cook everything together for 5 minutes. During this time, beat the eggs, add milk, a little nutmeg and pour into the frying pan with the meat and vegetables. Cover again and cook the omelette over low heat for about 5-7 minutes. Sprinkle chopped basil on top, and voila. Dinner is served.
If you want your omelette to be fluffy and tender, then you don’t need to beat the eggs too much. After you add milk to them, try to only mix the spoons so that the two ingredients are well combined.
— You need to salt and pepper the omelet at the end of the process.
Step 1: Prepare the chicken breast.
Before you start cooking, you need to defrost the chicken breast. To do this, just leave it at room temperature for a while. Then rinse the poultry meat under running cool water and dry with disposable towels. Don't forget to remove the skin and bones, if any. Pour a small amount of clean water into the pan and place the chicken breast in it. Put everything on the fire and bring to a boil. Then add bay leaf and allspice to the broth, and lightly salt. You need to cook the breast for 20-25 minutes
until fully cooked. Remove the finished poultry meat from the broth using a special fork or slotted spoon. Let the ingredient cool, and then cut it into medium-sized pieces or simply tear it into fibers.
Step 2: Prepare the onion.
As always, start preparing onions by removing the skins. Then, with a knife slightly moistened in cool water, cut the ingredient in any way convenient for you. I love when the onion stands out brightly in an omelet, so I cut it into thin half rings.
Step 3: Prepare the egg mixture.
Break the chicken eggs into a small bowl and add a few tablespoons of milk to them. Don't forget to add salt and spices to taste. Then, using a whisk or regular fork, shake the mixture until smooth and very light foam forms.
Step 4: Prepare the chicken omelette.
Heat a non-stick frying pan and melt half of the prepared butter in it. Place the onion there and saute it over low heat. When the onion half rings become transparent, add the chicken meat. Stirring, cook the ingredients for 1 minute,
still on low heat. Don't forget to add salt and ground black pepper if necessary. As soon as the specified cooking time has passed, place the hot onions and chicken in a bowl with the egg mixture. Don't forget to stir. Wipe the pan dry with a paper towel and return it to the heat, and place the remaining butter in the middle. Once it has melted, pour the egg mixture into the pan along with the fried onions and chicken breast. Cook the omelette over low heat as before. As soon as its edges are slightly fried, use a fork to gather them into the center, allowing the still liquid omelette to spread over the pan again. The dish will be completely ready when the egg mass has set. As soon as this happens, proceed to serving the chicken omelette on the table.
Step 5: Serve the chicken omelette.
To properly serve a chicken omelette, you need to fold it in half.
This can be done directly in the frying pan using a special spatula. But if you are not confident in your skill, then just carefully let the omelette slide into the plate, tilting the pan so that it eventually folds in half on its own. That's all, add sauces or fresh herbs to taste and start eating. Bon appetit! If desired, you can add fresh tomatoes or herbs, as well as green onions, to the omelette.
If you do not have fresh chicken breast, you can use, for example, the remains of previously boiled or baked chicken, having first cleared the meat of bones, cartilage and skin.
Fans of spicy and hot dishes can indulge themselves and prepare an omelette with the addition of any suitable spices, for example, hot pepper or garlic.
This is a great breakfast to get you energized and energized for the whole day. Omelette is considered a healthy breakfast. Eggs contain folic acid, vitamin E, which ensures the beauty and firmness of the skin, and B vitamins, which ensure order in the functioning of the nervous system.
