Start your day with the ultimate indulgence: a Dungeness Crab Omelette. Packed with dungeness crab meat, cheese of your choice, and a touch of fresh herbs, this dish delivers a burst of coastal flavor in every bite. Light, fluffy, and perfectly seasoned, it’s a breakfast favorite that’s both elegant and satisfying.

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup Wild Dungeness Crab Meat
  • butter or extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • salt and pepper
  • cheese of choice (shredded mozzarella or parmesan)
  • fresh herbs, chopped (such as chives, parsley, or dill)
  • avocado slices
  • sour cream
  • green onions to garnish
  • lemon

Directions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper until well combined.

  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling to coat the pan.

  3. Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges start to set.

  4. Sprinkle the crab meat, cheese, and herbs evenly over one half of the omelette. Optionally, add a light squeeze of lemon juice for more flavor.

  5. Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the fillings. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully set.

  6. Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with avocado slices, sour cream, and more herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
