Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat butter in a 10-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-low until foaming, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add sliced onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until soft and light golden, 4–5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add greens and cook, stirring, until wilted and any moisture evaporates, about 2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl, then pour into the skillet and scatter cheese over top.

  5. Step 5

    Cook undisturbed over medium-low heat until the edges are set and light golden but the center jiggles, 6–8 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Slide under a preheated broiler for 2–3 minutes until the top is just set and edges are browned.
