Step 1
Slice potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Slice onion into thin half-moons.
Step 2
Heat oil in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium. Add potatoes and onion; cook 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender but not browned.
Step 3
While potatoes cook, whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
Step 4
Pour eggs over the potato mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 6–7 minutes without stirring until edges set but center still jiggles slightly.
Step 5
Turn on the broiler. Once hot, transfer skillet to the broiler rack 4 inches from heat. Broil 2–3 minutes until the top is set and lightly golden.
Step 6
Slide the tortilla onto a cutting board. Let cool 2 minutes, then cut into 4–6 wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
