"SPRING CHICKEN" OMELET

The name "Spring Chicken Omelet" comes from two major ingredients in the omelet: chicken and salad spring mix (baby spinach, greens, arugula, endive, radicchio, and Swiss chard) filling. It is a healthy alternative to a regular three-egg omelet, which is full of flavor, but loaded with butter, fatty meats, cheeses, and high in fats, cholesterol, and calories. The Spring Chicken Omelet is not only delicious, but high in protein and lower in fat calories. Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine once said, "Our food should be our medicine and our medicine should be our food." This recipe is important to me because it supports my efforts to make healthier food choices so I can once again feel like a "Spring Chicken"!

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife, peel the red onion and cut into very thin strips (French cut)and set aside ¼ cup.
  • Prepare sauté pan by generously spraying non-stick cooking spray into the pan over medium heat.
  • Add red onions and sauté lightly using a wooden spatula/spoon for a minute or until onions start to turn slightly brown.
  • Slowly add up to 1 tbsp of low sodium beef broth along with salad spring mix in the pan and sauté until veggies are slightly tender.
  • Fold in precooked bite size chicken strips and stir together until warmed. Put sauté chicken and vegetables to the side.
  • Crack and separate two egg whites from the yolks and put into a glass bowl. Crack a third egg and beat together with the egg whites for about a minute or until fluffy.
  • Mix the onion power, paprika, and celery seed into the egg batter. (Optional dash of nutmeg and lemon pepper for added flavor.).
  • Spray a sauté pan with non-stick cooking spray and set it over medium heat temperature.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook until you see the egg mixture "begin" to get solid. (Lower the heat setting to prevent the egg from cooking too fast.) Carefully, flip the egg over with the spatula on the other side in order to absorb the egg (running) moisture.
  • Next, spread the sautéed veggies and shredded chicken mixture on top of ½ of the egg. Sprinkle a thin coating of shredded mozzarella on top of the egg and fold the omelet closed.
  • Finally, sprinkle a thin coating of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the omelet.
  • Turn the flame off from under the pan, and cover the omelet with a lid so the cheese can begin to melt (no longer than a minute). Serve on a plate immediately.

SIX-SPICE CHICKEN OMELETTE

Quick and easy dish for anytime of the day! I had this for breakfast with a cup of hot green tea but I think this is great with jasmine rice for dinner too. The 6 spices are the Chinese 5-spice and ground coriander - makes a delicious fusion dish! To save time, while you marinate the chicken, cut the vegetables and prepare the omelette.

Steps:

  • Combine chicken and other marinade ingredients in a non-reactive bowl; set aside for 15mins
  • In the meantime, combine eggs, 2 TB water, black pepper together in a bowl; whisk slightly until well combined and foamy
  • Heat 1 tsp of oil in a wok over med-high heat, pour 1/4 of egg mixture, tilting the wok to cover the base and side
  • As the egg sets, gently lift the edge to uncooked egg runs underneath; cook for 1 minute or until set
  • Slide omelette into a large plate, cover to keep warm; repeat with remaining egg to make 4 omelettes
  • Heat another 2 tsp of oil in the same wok (remove any egg leftover with a clean kitchen paper towel) over med-high heat; add onions and stir fry for 2 minutes, until soft and slightly browned
  • Add garlic, stir fry for another minute then add the marinated chicken, stir fry for another 2 minutes until just cooked through (unless you have a large wok, you may need to cook the chicken in 2 batches, to prevent overcrowding the wok)
  • Add sliced mushrooms to the wok, stir fry the mixture for 1 min (until mushrooms are cooked)
  • Now add the bean sprouts, give the mixture a good quick stir
  • Quickly add the sauce (make sure it's high heat) - the sauce should boil off quickly, leaving a slightly wet mixture, like a glaze
  • Divide the omelettes into 4 serving plates, top each halves with 1/4 of the filling; fold into half to enclose the filling
  • Drizzle with a drops of dark soy sauce if desired and sprinkle with green onions; serve immediately

HERBED CHICKEN OMELET

Tender chunks of leftover chicken provide a nice change of pace from the usual ham in the omelet Sonja Blow makes in Groveland, California. "Served with toast and tomato slices, it's a special breakfast for two," she notes.
