Goat Cheese, Piquillo Pepper & Chorizo Omelette

Serves 1

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 to 1 ounce goat cheese
1-2 T 1/4" dice roasted red pepper/piquillo peppers
2 T 1/4" dice sausage (chorizo, soppressata, etc.)
1 clove garlic
1/2 to 1 T butter

In an 8" omelette pan, saute garlic in butter till beginning to brown over medium heat. Add eggs and reduce heat to low/medium-low. Allow to cook undisturbed until beginning to set. As this is occurring, use a rubber spatula to occasionally lift edges and prevent excessive browning of omelette. Once the omelette is mostly set, with just a touch of wetness on top, add fillings, and flip over half to create a crescent moon shape. Allow to continue cooking for 1 minute then gently flip over to the other side, trying to keep filling inside. Cook for another minute.

Serve warm with a green salad.
