Asparagus and Herb Frittata

Servings 4 servings
Author Brandon Matzek

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch asparagus, tough ends trimmed
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for grating
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped soft herbs, parsley, dill and chives used here, plus more for sprinkling
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 425°F.
  • Place asparagus on a baking sheet, and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast until tender but not falling apart (about 12 minutes), shaking the pan halfway through. Let cool a moment then chop into bite-sized pieces.
  • Preheat a broiler to high.
  • Whisk together eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, Parmesan, herbs and a few turns of black pepper. Stir in asparagus.
  • Warm butter in a 10-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Pour in eggs and scramble for 2 minutes. Let cook untouched for another 2 minutes until the edges set. Grate more Parmesan over the top, then pop under a high broiler. Cook until the top is firm and golden (about 2 minutes more).
  • Transfer frittata to a cutting board, cut in wedges and serve with more fresh herbs!
