BAKED SICILIAN FRITTATA

I like to do the first and second step the night before, so I can put it together quickly the next morning for a hearty breakfast. The 30 minute baking time is the perfect amount of time for me to get a shower and dress for work, making this work for a weekday breakfast. Usually I half this recipe to serve 4 instead of 8, except over the holidays.

LOADED BAKED FRITTATA



Loaded Baked Frittata image

Sautéed onion, pepper and spinach lace this sturdy frittata that's as good warm out of the pan as it is cold. Bacon and goat cheese enrich the mix, which can be eaten alone or put in a sandwich (see tip below). This recipe is, of course, delicious as is, but you can also take a cue from one of our commenters, Joan, who made this with leftover peppers and onions, adding sliced roasted baby potatoes. Ready in 45 minutes, it lasts for up to three days in the refrigerator, so you can enjoy it as long as it lasts - which may not be very long.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup finely diced bacon
1 cup diced onion (from 1 small onion)
2 cups diced red or orange bell peppers (from 2 peppers)
1 (5-ounce) package baby spinach
4 ounces fresh goat cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until smooth. Set aside.
  • Put bacon in a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron or oven-safe nonstick skillet. Set over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add onion, peppers and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the spinach a handful at a time, stirring after each addition, to wilt.
  • Reduce heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the vegetables, then smooth the top. Drop small nuggets of goat cheese evenly on top. Transfer to the oven.
  • Bake until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set, 20 to 25 minutes. When you shake the pan, the eggs shouldn't jiggle. Cool on a rack for about 10 minutes.
  • Cut into wedges to serve warm or at room temperature.
