- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs, like parsley, thyme, or dill
- 1 cup grated Swiss or cheddar cheese
- Position a rack about 8 inches from the broiler and preheat.
- Melt the butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onions and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions get very soft, about 15 minutes.

- Transfer onions to a bowl to cool.
- Reserve the skillet.
- Stir the onions, ham, herbs and cheese into the eggs.
- Heat the non-stick skillet.
- Pour the frittata mixture into the pan and stir to make sure the fillings are evenly arranged.
- Cook, stirring gently a couple times in the first minutes of cooking.
- Then let the mixture cook undisturbed until the bottom sets, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil until the eggs are just set and brown, about 5 minutes.
- Take care not to overcook or the eggs will be dry.
- Remove from the oven, cover, and set aside for 5 minutes.
- Invert the frittata onto a large plate or platter.
