ASPARAGUS, CANADIAN BACON, AND CHEESE FRITTATA: LOW CARB



Asparagus, Canadian Bacon, and Cheese Frittata: Low Carb image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 large eggs
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces medium asparagus stalks (about 8), woody stems trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
4 medium slices Canadian bacon (about 2 ounces), coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the upper part of the oven and preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs, 3 tablespoons of the cheese, the milk, lemon zest, salt, and pepper to taste together in a bowl.
  • Heat the olive oil in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and Canadian bacon, and cook until the asparagus is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low, pour the egg mixture into the skillet, stirring gently to distribute the fillings evenly. Cover, and cook until the bottom sets, but does not get too brown, about 9 minutes. Remove the cover, scatter the remaining 1 tablespoon of cheese over the surface. Run the frittata under the broiler until the top sets and browns slightly, about 1 minute. Set aside for about 5 minutes before unmolding. Slip the frittata out of the pan onto a cutting board, cut into wedges. Serve warm or room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pan: Use an oven-safe skillet with a lid to ensure even cooking.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh asparagus, crispy bacon, and flavorful cheese will make all the difference.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the asparagus spears so they cook evenly.
  • Be patient: Don't rush the cooking process. Cooking the frittata over low heat will help it cook evenly and prevent the bottom from burning.
  • Don't flip the frittata: Unlike other egg dishes, you don't need to flip the frittata. Simply cook it in the oven until the top is set.
  • Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help prevent it from falling apart.

Conclusion:

This bacon and asparagus frittata is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's packed with protein, vegetables, and flavor, and it's sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a delicious and nutritious meal, give this frittata a try.
