Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound red potatoes, diced
12 eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
¾ cup milk
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 ounces bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large tomato, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl; cook in the microwave, stirring occasionally, until tender but still hold shape, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs, Parmesan cheese, milk, and half of the rosemary together in a bowl until smooth; season with salt and pepper.
  • Saute bacon in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until almost crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove about 1/4 cup of the bacon and set aside; drain all but 2 tablespoons bacon drippings from the skillet.
  • Saute potatoes in the bacon drippings and remaining bacon until bacon is crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Gently stir tomato and egg mixture into the potatoes. Sprinkle reserved bacon and remaining rosemary over egg mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are set and frittata is browned, about 40 minutes. Cut frittata into wedges.

Time 35m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 large eggs
4 slices turkey bacon
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup freshly grated Fontina cheese (parmesean would also work well)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons half-and-half

Steps:

  • add the olive oil and 1/2 of the butter to a warm, oven-proof skillet.
  • just melt the butter preheat oven to 350 degrees (my oven cooks very hot, if yours does not i would go to 375.) fry the bacon until crispy.
  • do not drain the skillet (the turkey bacon that we get renders very little fat.) remove the bacon and drain on paper towels.
  • in a seperate bowl combine the eggs and half and half and beat well.
  • add the rosemary, salt and pepper.
  • add the last 1/2 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and just melt.
  • add the eggs.
  • cook over medium to medium low heat, tilting skillet until the bottom is coated and just starting to cook.
  • crumble the bacon over the eggs and add the cheese, reserving a bit of the cheese for later.
  • cook until just setting up, about 2 minutes.
  • do not stir the eggs or you will just scramble them.
  • remove from burner and bake for 15 minutes, sprinkling the reserved cheese over the top at the last minute to brown.

Tips:

  • Use a nonstick skillet to prevent the frittata from sticking.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not overcooked.
  • Use fresh rosemary for the best flavor.
  • Grate the Parmesan cheese finely so that it melts evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the frittata, as it will become dry.
  • Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
