Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until frothy.
- In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken sausage coins and brown them on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes, turning often. Transfer the sausage to a plate until ready to use.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the skillet and heat it over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft but not browned. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon room temperature water to the pan to stop the garlic browning, and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, then stir in the spinach and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted and the water in the pan evaporates, about 2 minutes. Spread this frittata filling evenly in the skillet and layer with the chicken sausage.
- Pour the egg-milk mixture over the frittata filling and use a silicone spatula to scrape the sides of the pan and gently pull eggs from the edges toward the middle so that soft curds form and the frittata begins to firm up.
- Give the pan a couple of good shakes to release the frittata from the pan bottom (the top of the frittata will still be raw). Sprinkle the olives and feta over the eggs. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the fritatta is mostly dry (the feta will release some liquid--this is fine--but just be sure the egg is completely cooked) and lightly browned on top, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Let rest 5 minutes, then slide the frittata onto a large plate and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and pepper to taste. Top with more feta, parsley and olive oil. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
SAUSAGE SALAD
Steps:
- Preheat broiler. Place sausages in one layer on a large baking sheet and broil until charred on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Set aside to cool.
- To make onion cups, slice off root ends and tops, then peel. Cut each in half horizontally, and separate layers by pressing with your thumbs against root end to release rings. Reserve 12 largest as serving cups. Slice remaining onion into thin strips for use in salad.
- Slice cucumbers in half lengthwise. Then slice cucumbers and charred sausages, diagonally.
- Combine sausage, cucumbers, onion strips, celery leaves, and cilantro in a medium bowl. In another bowl, whisk together serrano chiles, lime leaves, garlic, palm or brown sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce. Pour over salad and toss to combine.
- To serve, place onion cups openside up on each serving plate. Spoon salad into cups and serve.
CHICKEN APPLE SAUSAGE FRITTATA
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons oil and the chicken sausage, onions, jalapenos, peppers and saute until vegetables have softened.
- In medium bowl, mix eggs, milk, paprika and salt and pepper.
- Add chicken sausage and vegetable mixture and eggs together. Heat a medium saute pan over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon olive oil, and pour in egg mixture. Cook for 3 minutes on each side, mixture should be slightly firm and moist. In the mean time add tortillas to oven and toast for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown, then remove.
- Remove frittata from pan, place one tortilla on bottom of pan and spread with 1/2 of the cheese, place cooked frittata on top, and top frittata with second tortilla. Top tortilla with remaining cheese and place pan in oven for 5 minutes or until cheese melts.
- Remove from oven and garnish with scallions and tomatoes.
