Springtime Asparagus and Wild Nettle Frittata with Green Garlic

1. Preheat Broiler

Preheat your broiler so it's ready when you need it.

2. Cook Green Garlic

Melt the unsalted butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the thinly sliced green garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until they begin to soften and release their aroma.

3. Add Asparagus

Add the asparagus to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes crisp-tender and vibrant green.

4. Add Nettles

Using tongs, add the nettles to the skillet and toss gently with the asparagus and green garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

5. Add Eggs

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until fully blended and slightly foamy. Season with a little more salt and pepper. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, using a rubber spatula to scrape every bit from the bowl. As the eggs begin to set around the edges, use a silicone spatula or table knife to gently lift the cooked edges, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow underneath. This step takes about a minute.

6. Broil Frittata

Once the eggs have started to set, transfer the skillet to the preheated broiler. Broil for 1-2 minutes until the top is lightly browned and the eggs are fully cooked.

7. Finish and Serve

Remove the skillet from the broiler. Gently run a spatula or small knife around the edges to release the frittata, then carefully flip it onto a cutting board or cooling rack. Scatter the crumbled feta cheese over the top and let cool until just warm. Cut into wedges and serve.
