Ingredients
3 eggs
3 Tablespoons Chardonnay
-cup shredded Gruyere or Swiss Cheese
-cup fried and diced bacon
3 Tablespoons diced green onion with greens
1 Tablespoon butter or margarine (or, 1 teaspoon oil)
2 Tablespoons spicy honey mustard
chopped parsley for garnish
Method
1. Beat together eggs and Chardonnay until blended. In a 10-inch coated omelet pan melt butter until it sizzles but doesn?t brown. Pour in egg mixture. Mixture should set immediately at edges.2. With an inverted spatula (pancake turner) pull cooked portions of egg from the edges of the pan toward the center of the pan so uncooked egg can reach the hot pan surface. Tilt the pan and move it as necessary until there is no more runny egg, but the top of the omelet is still quite moist. Don?t overcook. The omelet continues cooking by itself even after it leaves the pan.3. Fill the omelet with the cheese bacon and green onions. (Put filling on the left side if you?re right handed and the right side if you?re a lefty.) Slide the spatula all the way under the unfilled side of the omelet and fold it in half. Put down the spatula and invert the omelet onto the plate. This procedure should take only 60 to 90-seconds.4. Serve with a dollop of the spicy honey mustard. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top.
