Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium (sliced thinly) onion
- 3 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 handful (chopped) fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup (grated) parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the sliced onion to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chopped basil leaves to the skillet and stir to combine with the onions and garlic.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables. Gently shake the skillet to spread the eggs evenly.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top of the egg mixture.
Cook on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges of the frittata start to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and the top is lightly golden.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and allow the frittata to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
