Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 small yellow onion, finely diced
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil and butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Toss in the cherry tomatoes and cook for 4-5 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Gently stir to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese on top, followed by the fresh basil leaves.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
