Make
-
Heat oven to 425F / 218C.
-
Heat a 8” / 20 cm skillet over medium-high heat (for 4 servings, adjust skillet size if customizing). Add butter (portion for frittata) and then onions and chopped chard stems to melted butter with some salt. Saute until onions are slightly golden and caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes.
-
Fold in chard leaves and saute until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
-
Pour in egg mixture and stir until everything is evenly distributed. Transfer to the oven and bake for 18 to 25 minutes, until a knife comes out cleanly.
-
While frittata is cooking, place garlic and broccoli into a microwave-safe dish. Cover with a damp paper towel and cook for 2-1/2 to 4 minutes, until broccoli gets to desired tenderness. Toss with lemon juice and butter (portion for broccoli). Season with some salt and pepper.

Enjoy frittata with broccoli on the side.
