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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

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

Step 3

Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Add the sliced onion to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the chopped basil leaves to the skillet and stir to combine with the onions and garlic.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables. Gently shake the skillet to spread the eggs evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top of the egg mixture.

Step 9

Cook on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges of the frittata start to set.

Step 10

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.

Step 11

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and allow the frittata to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
