Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
  2. Arrange asparagus on the baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for about 12 minutes, until golden and tender. Cool slightly, and cut into thirds.
  3. In an oven-proof skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground lamb, season with salt and pepper, and cook for around 5 minutes until browned.
  4. Add chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic to the skillet. Season with additional salt and pepper, and sauté for about 4-5 minutes until vegetables are softened.
  5. Gently stir in roasted asparagus pieces and evenly distribute.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and half-and-half until smooth. Pour over the lamb and vegetable mixture in the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 1 minute.
  7. Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over the top, then carefully transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until eggs are set and top is golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven, cool slightly, slice, and serve warm.
