Ingredients

scaled from 6 servings
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 lb asparagus
  • 1 large shallot
  • 1 1/2 oz goat cheese
  • 3/4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3/4 tbsp chives

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Heat the oven to 375F. Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and cut the spears into 1-inch lengths.
  2. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper for a full 30 seconds, until the color is completely uniform and there are no ribbons of white left.
  3. Warm the oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium and cook the sliced shallot 2 minutes until soft.
  4. Add the asparagus and cook 4 minutes, until bright green and crisp-tender. Anything still raw here stays raw in the finished frittata.
  5. Pour in the eggs, stir once with a spatula to distribute, and dot the goat cheese over the surface in teaspoon-sized lumps.
  6. Bake 18 to 22 minutes until the center no longer wobbles and an instant-read thermometer in the middle reads 160F.
  7. Rest 5 minutes, then finish with lemon zest and chives and cut into 4 wedges. It is as good warm as hot.
