Serves: 6 // Prep time: 20 minutes | Grilling time: about 17 minutes | Special equipment: 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet

Grocery List

Fresh Produce

  • 8 oz asparagus
  • 6 oz cherry tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves

Oil and Spices

  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • .25 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • .25 tsp kosher salt

Dairy

  • 3 oz feta cheese
  • 2 fl oz half-and-half
  • 1 oz Parmigiano-Reggiano® cheese

Special Equipment

  • 10" nonstick ovenproof skillet

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • ¼ cup half-and-half
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano® cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ pound asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, each cut in half
  • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. In a blender whirl the eggs, half-and-half, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper for 10 seconds. Set aside.

  2. Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F) and preheat the skillet on the cooking grate for 3 minutes.

  3. Add the oil to the skillet and then the asparagus; stir briefly. Cook over direct medium heat, with the lid closed, for 2 minutes. Wearing barbecue mitts, remove the skillet from the grill and roll the asparagus around in the skillet so that the oil coats the bottom and sides of the pan evenly. Place the skillet back on the cooking grate, arrange the asparagus in an even layer, and then scatter the garlic, tomatoes, and feta on top of the asparagus. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Grill the frittata over direct medium heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until the eggs are puffed, browned, and firm in the center, about 15 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve immediately.
