instructions
    1

    Begin by finely chopping the onion and green onion.

    2

    In a frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.

    3

    While the onions are cooking, dice the chicken breast into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper.

    4

    Add the chicken to the pan with the onions and cook until the chicken is no longer pink, around 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally.

    5

    In a bowl, beat the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

    6

    Once the chicken is cooked, push it to one side of the pan and add another tablespoon of oil to the other side. Pour the egg mixture into the pan.

    7

    Allow the eggs to cook on low heat, gently pushing the set edges towards the center while tilting the pan to let the uncooked egg flow to the edges.

    8

    When the eggs are almost set but still slightly runny on top (about 3-4 minutes), spread the chicken and onion mixture evenly on one half of the omelette.

    9

    Carefully fold the omelette over the filling and cook for another minute until fully set.

    10

    Slide the omelette onto a plate and drizzle with soy sauce. Garnish with chopped green onion.
