Ingredients
Protein
- 200g Chicken Breast — 2 small skinless breasts, about 100g each
- 4 Large Free-Range Eggs
- 30g Feta Cheese — crumbled
Fresh
- 100g Kale — tough stems removed
- 5g Fresh Dill — finely chopped
- 1clove Garlic — minced
Pantry
- 100g Cannellini Beans — from a tin, rinsed and drained
- 4ml Olive Oil — approx 1 tsp, divided
- 1g Black Pepper — freshly ground
- 1g Sea Salt
Method
Dice the chicken breast into small, 1cm cubes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. In a bowl, whisk the 4 eggs with the chopped dill and a pinch of salt until uniform.
Place a 24cm non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add half the olive oil. Add the diced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Return the pan to medium heat, add the remaining oil, garlic, and kale. Sauté for 2 minutes until the kale has wilted. Add the rinsed cannellini beans and the cooked chicken back to the pan, stirring to combine.
Pour the whisked eggs over the filling. Let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, until the edges are set. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges and tilt the pan, allowing raw egg to run underneath. Continue for another 1-2 minutes until the omelette is mostly set but still slightly soft on top.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta over one half of the omelette. Carefully fold the other half over. Slide the omelette onto a large plate, cut in half, and serve immediately between two plates.
