Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 1 small ripe tomato coarsely chopped (about ½ cup)
  • 2 large eggs
  • Half of a 7-ounce can white or light meat tuna drained and flaked
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet over low heat.
  • Add the onion, cover, and cook until tender (not browned), about 8 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato and continue cooking, uncovered, for about 10 minutes.
  • Let it cool slightly, then wipe the skillet clean.
  • In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs with salt, pepper, and the flaked tuna.
  • Fold in the cooked onion and tomato mixture.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the skillet over high heat until hot.
  • Quickly pour in the egg and tuna mixture, spreading it evenly.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-high.
  • Cook, shaking the skillet often to prevent sticking, until the edges and bottom start to brown, and the center is mostly set.
  • Use a spatula to carefully flip the omelet to the other side.
  • Add more oil to the skillet if needed.
  • Continue cooking until the center is fully set but slightly moist.
