Linguica, Chourico And Parsley Omelet
- 5 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 ounces linguica, cut into 1/8-inch slices
- 1 1/2 ounces chourico, casing removed, cut into 1/8-inch slices
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, very finely chopped
- kosher salt to taste
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a fork until well blended.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1/2 tablespoon of the oil and heat, then add the linguica and chourico.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat is rendered and the edges of the linguica curl up a bit and lightly brown, about 2 minutes.
- Drain the sausages on paper towels and wipe out the pan.
- Heat the pan over medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
- Return the sausages to the pan, then add the eggs.
- Scatter the parsley over the wet eggs.
- Run a rubber spatula around the edges of the pan to lift the set parts of the egg and let the wet eggs run under.
- Repeat until the eggs are just set but still wet.
- Season with salt.
- With the rubber spatula, carefully fold over one-third of the eggs, then fold again to make a 3-roll omelet.
- Tip out of the pan.
- Serve immediately, warm or at room temperature, cutting into slices if you want.
- This is great with simple garden greens lightly dressed in a sherry vinaigrette.
