Directions

1. Step 1Crack eggs into a medium bowl and season with salt. Whisk until smooth.
2. Step 2In a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 teaspoon oil. Add half the egg mixture and swirl pan to evenly coat bottom of skillet with egg. Cook, undisturbed, until edge is set, about 1 minute.
3. Step 3Run a spatula along edge of egg to release, then use your hands to gently flip. Cook until egg is just set on the bottom, about 20 seconds.
4. Step 4Slide omelet onto a cutting board and let cool 1 minute. Meanwhile, repeat process with remaining oil and egg. Roll omelets like a cigar and slice into ¼"-inch-thick "noodles."
5. Step 5Return skillet to medium-high heat and melt butter. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add noodles, Parmesan, and parsley and toss.
6. Step 6Season with pepper and sprinkle with Parmesan before serving.
