Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 cups Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoons Fresh chives, chopped
- 1 teaspoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Add the thinly sliced yellow onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes golden brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and evenly distribute the caramelized onions across the bottom of the skillet.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley, chives, and thyme leaves over the onions.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the onions and herbs in the skillet. Do not stir.
Cook on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the frittata.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is slightly golden.
Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing into wedges and serving.
