TRAVERSE CITY -- "It's nice to have an omelette, especially when you run out of Captain Crunch for breakfast," said chef Phil Murray, owner of Phil's on Front in Traverse City.

Phil is helping you create some of his favorite dishes in your own kitchen every week on UpNorthLive Tonight on ABC 29&8 at 6:30 p.m.

This week Phil is sharing his Irish Mushroom Omelette recipe:

Ingredients:

3 Farm fresh eggs

Portabello and shiitake mushrooms (chopped or sliced)

Grated or sliced Irish cheddar cheese

Cooking sherry

Butter

Cooking Directions:

Crack eggs into bowl and whip. Phil suggests you let a lot of air in so the eggs get fluffy.

"The eggs are free-range," said Phil. "The chicken's have a lot of fun... they're relaxed and you get a better egg."

Get a saute pan hot and put in butter to coat pan. Toss in mushrooms and a shot of sherry. Saute. Put eggs in another pan and let slowly cook. When almost done, put cheese and mushrooms on top. Once done, fold omelette over onto plate. Top with leftover mushrooms.

"Bon apetat," said Phil. "Bon apetite! Enjoy!"

If you can't wait until next week, stop in at Phil's On Front in downtown Traverse City. Phil's on Front is located at 236 East Front Street. His juicy watermelon salad will be on the menu!
