How to Make Asparagus And Ham Frittata

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Trim the asparagus and cut into 1-inch pieces.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet (10-12 inches) over medium heat.
  5. Add the asparagus and ham to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is tender-crisp and ham is heated through.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus and ham in the skillet.
  7. Cook for 5 minutes on the stovetop, or until the edges begin to set.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh chives, if desired.
