- 1 medium poblano pepper(s) green chili or bell pepper
- 4 large egg(s)
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) black pepper freshly ground
- 2 teaspoon(s) coconut oil
- 1/2 pound(s) Italian sausage or beef, cooked and sliced
- 2 tablespoon(s) parsley, fresh chopped
Instructions
- Put pepper in a heavy bottomed pan over high heat. Turn pepper as skin begins to blacken and blister on each side. When blistered on all sides, remove from pan and put in a plastic bag with a few drops of water; seal the bag immediately with plenty of air trapped inside. Wait 5 minutes. Remove from bag, cut out seeds, remove skin and dice.
- Meanwhile, beat eggs in a small bowl and add freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon coconut oil when hot.
- Add half of the egg mixture to hot pan. As the egg starts to set, add half of the remaining ingredients to one half of the pan.
- When fully set, fold half of the egg over the filling, and cook a minute more.
- Repeat with second omelet.
