I wanted to cook something different for breakfast, not just the same old sausage and biscuits or other traditional type breakfast foods. I started looking at everything I had and then started brainstorming. I had some leftover rotisserie chicken and thought…Chic-Fil-A serves chicken for breakfast so why can’t I make something with chicken it for breakfast. This turned out really good and was the something different I was looking for. It was so easy to throw together and cooked up really fast.
Ingredients:
1-1 1/2 Cup chicken-shredded
1/2-1 Cup shredded cheese (I used part pepper jack and part sharp cheddar)
1 Clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 Small onion, finely chopped
1 Small tomato, seeded and finely chopped
Salt and Pepper
Cumin-to taste
6 Eggs
Directions:
In skillet add a little olive oil then place onions and garlic. Once onions start to clear add chicken; season with salt, pepper and cumin. Keep on low-medium heat 3-5 minutes then remove from heat.
Crack eggs over bowl, mix together and then pour 1/2 mixture in skillet over low-medium heat. Once egg is pretty much entirely cooked; add 1/2 the chicken garlic mixture, 1/2 the cheese and 1/2 of the tomatoes to one half and then fold the other half over. Cook until cheese is melted.
***Repeat process for second omlet. This recipe and these amounts make 2 omlets.
