Ingredients

• 8 pieces large eggs
• 0.25 cups whole milk
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoons butter
• 1 pieces red bell pepper, diced
• 1 pieces yellow bell pepper, diced
• 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 0.25 cups fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil and butter in a 10-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced red and yellow bell peppers, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 5

Stir in the cherry tomatoes and minced garlic, and cook for another 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to release their juices.

Step 6

Spread the vegetable mixture evenly across the skillet, then pour the egg mixture over the top. Tilt the skillet slightly to ensure the eggs coat all the vegetables evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped basil and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.

Step 8

Cook the frittata on the stovetop over medium-low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set but the center remains slightly runny.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and fully set in the middle.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Gently slide the frittata onto a serving plate or slice and serve directly from the skillet. Garnish with additional chopped basil, if desired.
