Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Crack eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until just combined.

  2. Step 2

    Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium until it foams and smells nutty, ~60 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in eggs and let them sit undisturbed for 30 seconds until the bottom starts to set.

  4. Step 4

    Gently push cooked egg toward the center with a spatula, tilting the pan so raw egg flows to the edges.

  5. Step 5

    When the top is still slightly wet but the bottom is set, spoon salsa down the center and fold the omelet in half.

  6. Step 6

    Slide onto a plate and serve hot with fresh red leaf lettuce on the side.
