Opened-Faced Omelet with Lemon-Dill Cream Cheese, Smoked Salmon and Grilled Asparagus image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces cream cheese, such as Philadelphia, at room temperature
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 thin spears fresh asparagus, trimmed
2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more to coat the pan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 large eggs
12 paper-thin slices nova smoked salmon
Fresh dill fronds, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the lemon-dill cream cheese: Mix together the cream cheese, dill and lemon zest and juice in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cover and let sit at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld, at least 15 minutes.
  • For the omelets: Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush the asparagus with 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the asparagus on all sides until slightly charred and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Cut into thirds.
  • Heat a 6-inch nonstick pan over medium heat and brush with some oil. Whisk together 3 eggs in a small bowl until light and fluffy. Add to the pan and cook, stirring constantly with a heat-resistant rubber spatula, until barely cooked, about 20 seconds. Stir in some salt and pepper. Flip and cook until just set, but not dry, and barely golden brown on the bottom, 10 to 15 seconds more. Slide the omelet onto a plate. Spread some of the cream cheese over the omelet and top with some of the asparagus and 3 slices of the salmon. Garnish with some dill fronds. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining ingredients.

SMOKED SALMON OMELET RECIPE



Smoked Salmon Omelet Recipe image

Provided by á-4922

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large eggs
½ tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill, chives, or scallion greens
2 tablespoons smoked salmon (thinly sliced)

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl lightly beat eggs and a pinch of salt and pepper with a fork until mixed. 2. Heat butter in an 8 to 9 inch nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When butter stops foaming and just begins to color, pour in eggs. Wait a few seconds until edges of the omelet begin to set. With the flat of a fork, stir in circular motion until slightly thickened. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to pull in cooked egg at side of pan towards center; tilt pan to one side so that uncooked eggs run to edge of pan. Repeat until omelet is just set but still moist on top. Cook a few more seconds to brown bottom. 3. Just before folding, sprinkle in dill, chives, or scallion greens, then place smoked salmon strips over center third of omelet. 4. To fold omelet, jerk pan sharply toward you a few times to slide omelet up far side of pan. Jerk pan again so that far side just folds over onto itself or use fork or spatula to fold edge over. Grasp pan as far down the handle as possible with your palm facing up; rest far edge of pan on serving plate and gently roll omelet onto plate so that it gets its final fold. Use a fork or spatula to tuck in any edges. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose High-Quality Smoked Salmon: Opt for premium-quality smoked salmon that is moist, flavorful, and has a delicate texture. Freshly smoked salmon is ideal, but vacuum-packed or canned salmon can also work.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Ensure that the eggs, vegetables, and herbs used in the omelet are fresh for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Control the Heat: Cook the omelet over medium heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking throughout.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: Keep a close eye on the cooking time to prevent the eggs from becoming dry and rubbery. Lightly cooked or runny eggs create a more succulent omelet.
  • Fold, Don't Flip: Instead of flipping the omelet, use a spatula to gently fold it over, creating a tender and fluffy texture.
  • Garnish Wisely: Enhance the final presentation by garnishing the omelet with fresh herbs, such as chives, dill, or parsley, to add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Creating a delectable smoked salmon omelet requires careful selection of ingredients and meticulous cooking techniques. By following these tips, you can elevate your omelet-making skills and impress your family and friends with a flavorful and visually appealing dish. Whether you prefer a classic omelet or one enhanced with additional ingredients like vegetables or cheese, the possibilities are endless. Experiment with different combinations to discover your favorite smoked salmon omelet recipe and enjoy a hearty and satisfying meal any time of the day.
