Egg White Omelet with Cucumbers and Smoked Salmon
- 1 kirby cucumber, seeded and diced, with skin
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 10 large egg whites (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 3 or 4 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced
- Position an oven rack 6-inches from the broiler, and preheat the broiler to high heat.
- Toss the cucumber, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil together.
- Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Warm a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
- Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until foamy and doubled in volume; season with salt and pepper and whisk in the dill.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet.
- Pour the whites into the skillet and swirl to cover entire skillet.
- Cook, without stirring, until the whites are almost set and light brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
- Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the omelet sets and begins to brown, about 30 seconds.
- Spoon half of the cucumber salad onto half of the omelet and fold the omelet over the filling.
- Transfer omelet to a serving platter and scatter the remaining cucumber salad on top.
