• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 shallot, chopped
• 5 large eggs
• 1 1/3 cups half-and-half

Drain and rinse with cold water, then pat dry; set skillet aside. Arrange asparagus in prepared pan in a circular pattern. Sprinkle cheese on top.
2. Melt butter in same skillet over medium heat; add shallot and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer shallot to a bowl; add eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper; and blend with a fork. Pour over asparagus and cheese.
