Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to the broil setting, ensuring it's properly heated.
  2. In your frying pan, add olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chopped chives and asparagus, cooking for 4-5 minutes until vibrant green.
  3. Stir in diced ham, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Add cheese, garlic powder, parsley, seasoned salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus and ham. Cook on medium-low for 4-5 minutes until edges set and center remains slightly jiggly.
  6. Place the pan under the broiler, maintaining a distance of 4-6 inches from the heat source. Broil for 2-4 minutes until the top is set and lightly browned.
