Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over for shells (about 6 ounces),
1 cup fresh corn kernels (from about 2 cobs)
1 bunch scallions, chopped, whites and greens kept separate
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound boiled small potatoes
1 1/4 teaspoons seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
6 large eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the crab, corn, scallion whites and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges of the crab are just crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Gently smash the potatoes with the heel of your hand so the inside is exposed but they still hold their shape. Heat 4 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet over medium-high heat and add the potatoes in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning and 1 tablespoon of the scallion greens. Season with salt. Transfer to a plate, cover and keep warm. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Beat the eggs, cream, remaining scallion greens and remaining 3/4 teaspoon seafood seasoning, then pour into the hot skillet. Cook by lifting the set egg with a spatula, letting the uncooked egg flow underneath. When the eggs are mostly set but still loose on top, add the crab filling to one side. Gently fold the omelet in half and slide onto a serving plate. Serve with the smashed potatoes.

Crab and egg go very well together in this delightful dish. Fresh crab meat is best but if you can't find it, use canned.

I love when I go out to brunch and there's an omelet station. I thought it would be fun to create one at home for when my friends and family come over. Everyone can customize their omelets with their favorite ingredients. For my omelet, I love to add crabmeat, shrimp, sauteed peppers and onions, and Havarti cheese. It's so good!

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon oil, or more as needed
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large white onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
1 small red bell pepper, diced
1/2 pound raw large (31/35) or extra-large (26/30) shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 teaspoons seafood seasoning
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 pound lump crabmeat
1/4 pound Havarti cheese slices
1/4 pound Cheddar slices
One 8-ounce package sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cups diced ham
3 green onions, sliced
Chopped fresh parsley, for sprinkling
Chopped fresh dill, for sprinkling
1 dozen large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to its warm setting, or 200 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the peppers to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. (Add additional oil to the skillet if the vegetables are dry.) Transfer to a bowl.
  • Add another tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the shrimp. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Cook until the shrimp are done and turn pink, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Combine the crab, remaining teaspoon seafood seasoning and remaining teaspoon lemon juice in a bowl.
  • Set up the omelet bar: In addition to the onions, pepper and seafood, arrange the cheeses, mushrooms, diced ham, green onions and herbs in bowls on a serving platter.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a large bowl. For each omelet, melt 1 tablespoon butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Ladle one-quarter of the egg mixture into the skillet (enough to fill the bottom of the skillet.) Tilt the pan to spread the egg mixture evenly. Use a spatula and loosen the edges and run the uncooked yolk underneath as the omelet cooks.
  • Once the eggs are set, place 2 slices of cheese in a single layer to cover the egg. Sprinkle with the desired toppings on one side of the omelet. Carefully fold the omelet in half. Slide the omelet onto a serving plate and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the cooked omelets in the warm oven while cooking the remaining omelets, if desired.

2 ounces havarti cheese, thinly sliced

Tips:

  • For a fluffier omelet, separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Then, fold the egg whites into the egg yolks.
  • Use a non-stick skillet over medium heat to cook the omelet. This will help prevent the omelet from sticking and tearing.
  • Cook the omelet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. Do not overcook the omelet, or it will become tough.
  • Fill the omelet with your favorite fillings, such as cheese, vegetables, or meat.
  • Serve the omelet immediately with your favorite sides, such as toast, fruit, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Omelets are a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They are also a great way to use up leftovers. With a little creativity, you can make an omelet that is both delicious and nutritious. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, try making an omelet. You won't be disappointed!
