Spring Omelet Recipe

Spring Omelet Recipe
Anthony Ricco•

This Asian-inspired egg dish from NYC's innovative Spice Market is not your average Denver omelet. Expect nothing less from one of Wolfgang Puck's outposts.

Packed with seasonal spring vegetables, the omelet is topped with a spicy coconut-shrimp sambal and finished in the oven. You won't find this amidst the smoked salmon, home fries and hollandaise of your neighborhood brunch spot. But you might find it in Malaysia.
