Prep 15 minutes | Cook 30 minutes | Advanced | Serves 2 | Southern

This exquisite Southern-style frittata elevates humble ingredients to an art form, bringing a delicate balance of creamy cheese and perfectly cooked eggs. With a fragrant infusion of fresh herbs, it's a dish that promises to impress and delight your guests at any dining occasion.

What you have

• 6 eggs
• 1 cup milk cheese

Method

1. Step 1: Preheat your stovetop in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, chopped thyme, chives, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
3. Step 3: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, gently stirring the edges to allow uncooked eggs to flow to the bottom.
4. Step 4: Sprinkle the milk cheese evenly over the top and reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet and cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center.
5. Step 5: Once cooked, carefully run a spatula around the edges and either invert the frittata onto a plate or serve it directly from the skillet. Garnish with additional herbs.

Serving suggestion

A refreshing arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette complements the richness of the frittata.

Pair this dish with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a light Southern Sweet Tea.
