Ingredients

  • A single slice of crispy bacon
  • Three large, farm-fresh eggs
  • A quarter cup of creamy, whole milk
  • Two teaspoons of light and flavorful vegetable oil
  • Half of a luscious, ripe tomato, finely diced
  • Two delicate slices of tomato, each halved
  • Five ounces of thinly sliced deli turkey
  • A quarter cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • A quarter cup of rich and velvety hollandaise sauce
  • A touch of fragrant dried parsley

Step 1

Begin by placing the savory bacon in a skillet, allowing it to sizzle over medium-high heat. Turn the bacon occasionally until it reaches a delightful, even brownness, typically around 10 minutes. Once done, let the bacon rest on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease. After it cools down, crumble the bacon into delectable bits.

Step 2

Meanwhile, prepare for the next step by preheating your oven's broiler and adjusting the rack to about 6 inches from the heat source.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until the mixture achieves a smooth, creamy consistency.

Step 4

Next, in an omelet pan or skillet, heat a drizzle of vegetable oil over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture, swirling the pan to spread the liquid evenly. Allow the omelet to cook until it is just about set with slightly soft edges, usually 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 5

Carefully flip the omelet to cook the other side for an additional minute.

Step 6

Transfer the partially cooked omelet onto a baking sheet safe for broiling. Top it off with the crumbled bacon, diced tomato, slices of deli turkey, and shreds of Monterey Jack cheese.

Step 7

Fold the omelet in half to encase the mouthwatering fillings and slide it under the broiler until the cheese melts and bubbles, around 2 minutes.

Step 8

Once beautifully melted, transfer the omelet to a serving platter. Arrange fresh tomato slices atop the omelet for a burst of color. Drizzle hollandaise sauce over the omelet and sprinkle with a touch of parsley flakes to add an elegant finish. Serve and enjoy your flavorful creation!
