Categories     breakfast, main course

Time 45m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup long-grain rice
1 1/2 pounds asparagus
1 or 2 bunches of chives to yield 1/2 cup
8 ounces whole red pepper or 7 ounces chopped, ready-cut red pepper (1 1/2 cups)
A few sprigs fresh thyme to yield 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
1/2 pound cooked, peeled shrimp
1 orange
1 1/2 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano (7 heaping tablespoons coarsely grated)
2 large eggs
5 egg whites
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 slices crusty country bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Combine the rice with 2/3 cup water and bring to a boil in heavy-bottomed pot. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, cooking a total of 17 minutes.
  • Wash and trim asparagus by breaking stalks at the point where the tough woody part meets the tender stalk. Take 1 pound of the asparagus and cut the stalks into 1/4-inch pieces. Steam the asparagus for 3 to 5 minutes, until it is tender but still firm.
  • Meanwhile, wash and chop the chives; wash, trim, seed and chop the red pepper into small dices. Wash the thyme and remove leaves from sprigs; cut the shrimp into 1/4-inch pieces; grate the rind of the orange, and grate the cheese.
  • Drain the asparagus. Steam the remaining whole asparagus.
  • Whisk the eggs and egg whites until they are well beaten. Stir in the chives, red pepper, thyme, shrimp, orange rind, cheese and cut-up asparagus. When rice is cooked, stir in. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a 12-inch nonstick saute pan that can go into the oven over medium-high heat. Add the oil and pour egg mixture in the pan, stirring for about a minute. Reduce heat to low and cook for 2 minutes longer.
  • Drain the whole asparagus.
  • Place saute pan in the oven and bake until the eggs set, about 5 minutes. Loosen the frittata and place a serving plate over the pan. Flip the frittata on to the serving plate. Surround with the whole asparagus. Serve with bread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a better flavor and texture than frozen shrimp.
  • Clean the shrimp properly. Make sure to remove the shells, tails, and veins from the shrimp before cooking them.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a non-stick skillet. This will help prevent the frittata from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the frittata over medium heat. This will help prevent the eggs from overcooking.
  • Don't overcook the frittata. The frittata is done cooking when the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
  • Serve the frittata immediately. The frittata is best served hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

The shrimp frittata is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With its simple ingredients and quick cooking time, the shrimp frittata is sure to become a family favorite.
