Ingredients

Omelets

  • cooking spray
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Sauce

  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 dash nutmeg
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Filling

  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 (6 ounce) can crab
  • 1 (6 ounce) can salad shrimp

Directions

Step 1
Make filling: Stir together chicken broth and mustard in a saucepan until well combined. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then add cream and butter. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in crab and shrimp; keep warm over low heat.

Step 2
Make sauce: Stir together cream and mustard in a small pot over medium heat until hot. Whisk in Cheddar cheese until smooth. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper; keep warm over low heat.

Step 3
Prepare omelets: Grease an 8-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth.

Step 4
Pour about 1/4 cup egg mixture into the hot pan; swirl to make a thin, even layer of egg. Cook until firm, then flip and cook for a few more seconds to firm the other side. Spoon 1/6 of the seafood filling onto the lower half of omelet, then roll up into a cylinder. Repeat this step with remaining egg mixture.

Step 5
Serve 2 omelets smothered in cheese sauce per person.
