Mushroom Lovers Frittata

Ingredients

1 tsp (5 mL) each butter and olive oil
1/2 cup (125 mL) thinly sliced onions or dried shallots
2 cups (500 mL) fresh white or cremini (cafe) mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 tbsp (15 mL) balsamic vinegar
8 eggs
1/3 cup (75 mL) fresh parsley, coarsely chopped
to taste fresh ground pepper

Directions

Preheat broiler. Heat butter and oil in a non stick 8 inch (20 cm) oven proof skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook for about 2 minutes or until golden. Stir in mushrooms and balsamic vinegar; cook for about 3 minutes. Lightly beat eggs with parsley and pepper. Pour into pan and lower heat to medium low, stirring quickly just enough to mix in mushroom mixture. As mixture sets at the edges, with spatula, gently lift cooked portion to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Cook until the bottom is set and the top is almost set, about 4 minutes. Place under broiler for 2 to 3 minutes or until eggs are set. Cut into wedges to serve.
