Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound broccoli rabe, tough stem ends removed
3/4 pound hot Italian sausage, loose or in links
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
Salt and black pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons roughly chopped rosemary
1 1/2 cups ricotta
3 ounces grated provolone (about 1 1/4 cup)
3 ounces grated Parmesan (about 3/4 cup)
4 ounces grated smoked mozzarella (about 1 1/2 cup)
10 eggs, lightly beaten and seasoned with salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add broccoli rabe and cook for 1 minute, just to wilt, then remove, rinse with cold water and drain. Roughly chop greens, then squeeze to remove excess water and set aside.
  • Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage (remove casings from links first) and cook, stirring and mashing, until sausage is in large, well-browned crumbled pieces, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove cooked sausage, blot on paper towels, and set aside.
  • Add olive oil to skillet. When oil is hot, add onion and cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper, then add garlic and rosemary and cook for 1 minute more. Turn off heat and stir in chopped greens and reserved sausage. Let mixture cool in pan.
  • Spoon dabs of ricotta over greens mixture, then sprinkle evenly with provolone, Parmesan and mozzarella. Pour seasoned eggs over, tilting pan to distribute.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until top is golden and eggs are no longer runny at the center. (Use a skewer or paring knife to check; residual heat will continue to cook frittata as it cools.) Let cool at least 15 minutes, then cut into wedges.

This frittata is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the sausage and cheese, and they don't even notice the broccoli rabe.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli rabe, but I loved this frittata. The sausage and cheese really balance out the bitterness of the broccoli rabe.
