Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.25 cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 medium yellow onions
- 3 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions. Roughly chop the fresh dill and set aside.
In a medium-sized oven-safe skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until the onions turn golden brown and caramelized. Reduce the heat if necessary to avoid burning.
While the onions are cooking, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and chopped dill in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
Once the onions are caramelized, spread them evenly across the bottom of the skillet. Gently pour the egg mixture over the onions, ensuring even distribution.
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it evenly on top of the egg mixture.
Allow the frittata to cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for about 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and the top is golden.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for a few minutes. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
