Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Asparagus
- 1 pound, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- Onion
- 1 medium, finely chopped
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Eggs
- 6 large
- Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup, grated
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, or to taste
- Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the chopped asparagus, onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the onion is translucent.
- While the vegetables are cooking, in a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed asparagus and onion in the skillet. Gently stir to combine, ensuring the vegetables are distributed throughout.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed up and lightly browned on top, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh parsley.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider incorporating herbs such as thyme or basil into the egg mixture.
- You can also experiment with other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for a different twist.
- This frittata can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making it perfect for meal prep.
