4 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish

Preheat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat.

6
With a 4-ounce ladle, add one ladle of eggs to the pan.
7
Immediately begin stirring with a spatula.
8
(Cook's note: This is to heat the eggs through so they set like a custard.
9
Keep swirling them around so the eggs aren't in one spot long enough to burn.)
10
Once the eggs begin to set, stop stirring.
11
Transfer the pan to the oven for 1 1/2 minutes; the omelette should still have a soft custard touch
12
Top the omelette with the bacon, avocado and Monterey Jack.

Return it to the oven for 30 seconds, just so the cheese begins to melt.

Garnish with more chives and tarragon, and chervil.
