- Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Put oil and butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet, or any oven-proof skillet. Saute onion, garlic, and prosciutto together about 5 minutes, until onion is translucent and prosciutto is crisp. Add the spinach and cook 1 to 2 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Beat the eggs with half-and-half until fluffy and fold in the cheese. Pour the eggs over the spinach mixture and cook undisturbed about 2 minutes, until the eggs begin to set and bubble, but are still runny on top. Put skillet in oven for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer frittata to a large round platter. The frittata should slide out of pan easily.
- Garnish with additional cheese and parsley. Let the frittata set 1 to 2 minutes before slicing. Serves 4 to 6.
