Ingredients

Tap an ingredient to tick it off. Doubling changes the amounts, not the nutrition panel — that stays per serving.

Method

  1. Beat the eggs with the salt and pepper until no streak of white is left.
  2. Warm the oil in a non-stick pan over medium-low and scatter the sesame across it in one even layer. Low heat, or the seeds turn bitter before the egg sets.
  3. Pour the eggs over the seeds and tilt the pan thin. While the top is still glossy, lay the chicken, mozzarella, tomato and arugula over one half.
  4. Fold, give it a minute for the cheese, and slide it out sesame-side up. Snip the chives over.
Chef’s tipMedium-low, always. Sesame goes from nutty to bitter in about fifteen seconds, and once the egg is over it you cannot see it happen.
Make it twoMake them one at a time in the same pan rather than doubling the eggs — a thick omelet will not fold.
