Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients
 

  • 2 cups Diced or sliced potato
  • 8 to 10 Asparagus spears - trimmed and chopped
  • 2 to 3 tbsp Butter or olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Diced orange or red pepper
  • 2 cloves Garlic - minced
  • 6 Extra-large eggs
  • 1/4 cup Heavy cream or milk
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese - divided
  • 1/2 cup Frozen peas - slightly thawed
  • 2 tbsp Chopped fresh dill or parsley

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Bring a medium pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Add potatoes and cook until just about tender.
  • Remove potatoes from the pan.
  • Place asparagus in that same water and boil a minute or two or until just tender. Don’t overcook.
  • Drain and transfer asparagus to an ice water bath to cool. Dry asparagus well.
  • In a bowl, whisk eggs and cream or milk and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese together.
  • Season with a little salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter or oil in a 10 inch oven-proof skillet.
  • Add garlic and peppers. Sautee for 30 seconds, stirring constantly so you don’t burn garlic.
  • Add potatoes and cook a minute or two.
  • Add asparagus and peas and season with a little salt and pepper.
  • Pour egg mixture into skillet.
  • Cook until edges begin to set; push cooked edges toward the center of the pan with a spatula.
  • Continue cooking until the center begins to set, about 2 minutes more.
  • Bake about 5 to 10 minutes or until eggs are completely set. Remove from oven.
  • Sprinkle remaining cheese and dill and parsley over the top.
  • Cut into wedges and serve.

Notes

If you’re skillet has a plastic handle you can cover it well with heavy-duty foil to make it oven-safe.
