Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
- 1/2 small yellow onion about ½ cup, finely diced
- 2 cups cubed ham about 1/2” cubes
- 1 cup freshly shredded swiss cheese
- sliced green onion or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and several pinches of black pepper until well blended and slightly frothy. Pat the ham dry with paper towels if necessary.
- In a 10-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in the ham and cook for 1 to 2 minutes to warm it through.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently stir once or twice to mix the ingredients evenly. Sprinkle the cheese on top.
- Cook without stirring for 2 to 3 minutes, until the edges start to set.
- Carefully transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the center is set and slightly puffed. Check after 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Run a spatula around the edges, then slice and serve directly from the pan or transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with sliced green onion or chives and serve hot.
