    4 Servings

Ingredients

8 large eggs
4 large egg whites
1 cup (packed) basil leaves, thinly sliced
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced asparagus (from about 1 bunch)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°. Whisk eggs and egg whites in a medium bowl until frothy; mix in basil and season with salt and pepper.

    Step 2

    Heat oil in a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus and cook, tossing occasionally, until beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add egg mixture, stirring to combine
