Ingredients

Omelette:

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 T. butter
  • 1 T. milk
  • ½ C. spinach leaves chopped
  • ½ C. mushrooms sliced
  • ¼ C. green onions finely chopped
  • ¼ C. Swiss cheese shredded

Hollandaise Sauce: (makes 4 servings)

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice from 1 lemon
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 stick butter 8 tablespoons
  • Pinch cayenne pepper or hot sauce if desired

Instructions

Omelette:

  • In a medium skillet, melt butter and sauté spinach, mushrooms, and green onions, until fragrant. Drain and set aside. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour into skilled and cook until they start to become firm. Add cheese and sauté mix. Fold egg over. Serve with desired toppings like tomatoes or Hollandaise sauce.

Hollandaise Sauce:

  • Combine egg yolks, water, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in the bottom of a cup that barely fits the head of an immersion blender. Melt butter in a small saucepan over high heat, swirling constantly, until foaming subsides. Transfer butter to a 1 cup liquid measuring cup.
  • Place head of immersion blender into the bottom of the cup and turn it on. With the blender constantly running, slowly pour hot butter into cup. It should emulsify with the egg yolk and lemon juice. Continue pouring until all butter is added. Sauce should be thick and creamy. Season to taste with salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce (if desired). Serve immediately, or transfer to a small lidded pot and keep in a warm place for up to 1 hour before serving.
  • Serve with desired toppings like tomatoes or Hollandaise sauce.

  11. I love IHOP! We’ve been going there a lot lately and I always, always order the chicken fajita omelet. Maybe it’s time to branch out and order this next time. Better yet, now that I have the recipe, maybe I should make it myself. Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday!

    • Yes, those ingredient amounts are correct. The sauce, though, makes 1 cup. Which if you divide it makes 4 servings. I will clarify it. The plugin stripped that out so I will add it as a note! Thanks for pointing that out!

  25. We just recently got a I Hop in one of the little towns about 25 miles from us, (it’s really a big deal in the country). This Omelette looks delicious, I will be looking for it on the menu. Thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday today. Have a great day and come back soon!
