My Swiss Chard Omelet Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a 10-inch skillet, add the onion, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until completely soft but not colored, about 15 minutes. Add the chard and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all the moisture has cooked off and the chard is tender, about 15 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, mash the garlic in a mortar with a few pinches of salt (or chop them finely together), then stir it into the eggs along with the herbs. Combine the chard mixture with the eggs and stir in the Gruyère and half the Parmesan.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and, when it's hot, add the eggs. Give a stir and keep the heat at medium-high for about a minute, then turn it to low. Cook until the eggs are set but still a little moist on top, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the remaining Parmesan and broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat, until browned.
• Serve trouchia in the pan or slide it onto a serving dish and cut it into wedges. The gratinéed top and the golden bottom are equally presentable.

Steps:

• Rinse the chard very well to remove grit and sand; shake it to remove excess water.
• Tear chard into bite-size pieces onto a plate.
• Add a few T. filtered water to a large skillet. Place skillet over high heat and add chard and minced shallot.
• Cover and let steam about 3 minutes.
• While the chard is cooking, snip the basil leaves into the same small bowl containing the beaten eggs; mix through.
• Remove lid from skillet and cook a bit longer until water in skillet is absorbed.
• Add some of your favorite oil and heat it.
• When the oil is hot enough, add the egg/basil combination. Tilt the pan to distribute the eggs evenly. Let cook a couple of minutes to set the eggs (if you want, you can cover the skillet at this point and use a lower heat because the contained steam will cook the eggs).
• Add pepper and asiago cheese to taste. Add red pepper flakes if using.
• Cook a moment longer - just enough to melt or soften the cheese.
• Serve.

Steps:

• In skillet, heat oil and garlic on medium heat.
• Add chopped chard. I use both the stalks and the leaves. Stalks when cooked taste something like celery. Leaves taste a lot like spinach.
• Chop and add remaining ingredients in order: onion, zucchini, mushrooms.
• Cover for just a couple minutes. When you start to see the mushrooms show signs of cooking, check the chard. When leaves are just wilted, put veggies on a plate.
• Return skillet to burner. Scramble egg and cheese together. I also add a little pepper.
• Place egg on top of veggies and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a 10inch skillet. Add the onion and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until completely soft but not browned, about 15 minutes. Add the chard and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the moisture has cooked away and the chard is tender, about 15 minutes. Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper. Meanwhile, mash the garlic in a mortar with a few pinches of salt, then stir it into the eggs along with herbs. Combine the chardonion mixture with the eggs, stir in the Gruy re cheese and half the Parmesan.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the remaining oil to the skillet and when it's hot, add the eggs. Slide the pan back and forth a few times to make sure the eggs are not sticking. Keep the heat at mediumhigh for about one minute, then turn it to low. Cook until the eggs are set but still a quite moist on top. Add the remaining cheese, slide the pan under the broiler and broil until browned.
• Serve the trouchia in the pan or slide it onto a serving dish and cut into wedges. The gratined top and the golden bottom are equally presentable.

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in 8-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic; sauté until soft, about 2 minutes. Stir in chard, cover and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to small bowl. Wipe skillet clean.
• Whisk eggs, 1/4 cup cheese, salt and pepper in medium bowl to blend. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in same skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of egg mixture and cook until eggs are just set in center, tilting pan and lifting edge of omelet with spatula to let uncooked portion flow underneath, about 2 minutes. Scatter half of chard mixture over half of omelet. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over chard. Fold omelet over cheese; slide out onto plate. Repeat with remaining butter, egg mixture, chard and cheese.

Steps:

• In a small nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, water, salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges)., As eggs set, push cooked edges toward the center, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When the eggs are set, place ham on one side and sprinkle with cheese; fold other side over filling. Slide omelet onto a plate.

Steps:

• For balsamic vinegar reduction:.
• In a small bowl, stir together vinegar and sugar.
• Cook mixture in a small pan over med-low heat 10-12 minutes, or until reduced to a thick consistency. Let cool.
• For omelet:.
• Steam chard leaves 1 1/2 minutes and ribs 2 minutes.
• Heat oil over medium heat; add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add chard and tomatoes and cook 1 1/2 minutes or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste and keep warm.
• In a mixing bowl whisk eggs, egg substitute, and salt and pepper to taste.
• In a small nonstick pan, melt butter over medium heat. Pour egg mixture into pan and do not stir. Cook 4-5 minutes, or until eggs are completely set.
• With handle of pan on left, gently fold the top third of the omelet over the middle using a spatula.
• Grab the handle of the pan from underneath and tilt the pan to a 45 degree angle and place over a plate; loosen omelet from pan with spatula.
• Using the pan, slide the omelet onto the plate while folding the top 2/3 (folded portion) over the bottom 1/3, creating a tri-fold.
• Using a sharp knife, cut a slit into the top of and almost through all layers of the omelet, leaving 1 inch uncut on each side of the slit. Spoon 1/2 of the chard mixture into the slit and sprinkle with 1/2 each of the cheese and chives. Drizzle plate with 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar reduction.
• Repeat for second omelet.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the eggs to combine and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Remove the Swiss chard leaves from the stems, and discard the stems or save them for another use. Stack the leaves, roll, and thinly slice. (You should have about 1/2 cup lightly packed leaves.)
• Set a small skillet, well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick, over medium heat, and scatter the bacon and shallot in the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the shallot slices are lightly browned and tender, 3 or 4 minutes. Add the Swiss chard and cook until the chard is wilted and shrunk, stirring occasionally, another few minutes. Transfer the chard-bacon mixture to a plate.
• Return the pan to medium heat and pour in the olive oil. When it shimmers, pour in the eggs, swirling and tilting the pan so that the eggs fill the pan. Let the eggs cook undisturbed until the bottom is just set, 1 to 2 minutes. With a spatula, carefully lift one edge of the eggs and tilt the pan so that the loose eggs run underneath.
• Scatter the chard-bacon mixture on one side of the omelet and top with the goat cheese. Use a spatula to quickly lift the omelet from the other side and fold it over.
• Transfer the omelet to a plate, and eat.
