GREEN CHILE FRITTATA



Green Chile Frittata image

This simple frittata packs a big punch when it comes to flavor. It's full of potatoes, sausage, green chiles and cheese for a complete breakfast all in one dish. Make it ahead and heat up for breakfast throughout the week. A quick salsa made with diced canned tomatoes goes on the side for extra flavor and color.

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces sweet or spicy sausage links, casings removed
1 cup shredded hash browns, thawed
6 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
3 tablespoons cottage cheese
One 4-ounce can mild diced green chiles
One 14-ounce can petite fire roasted diced tomatoes, lightly drained
Half a small white onion, diced
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
Juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until just browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the hash browns and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden in spots, about 4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the eggs to a medium bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine, and then stir in the Cheddar and cottage cheese.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir the sausage and green chiles into the skillet to combine.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is thick, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer to the oven and cook until set, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Run a rubber spatula around the edge of the skillet and slide the frittata onto a cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve with the salsa.

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter or ghee
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions (4-5 green onions)
1 can (4.5oz) mild green chiles
4 firmly packed cups fresh baby spinach
salt and pepper to taste
3 cups liquid egg whites
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup cottage cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325ºF.
  • In an oven-safe skillet, heat butter medium heat. Add green onions, green chiles, and saute until green onions are softened (1-2 minute). Add spinach and stir and continue to cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. If you have a cover, you can cover for 1-2 minutes to speed the process of wilting the spinach. Add salt and pepper to taste, keeping in mind that the cheese will add saltiness.
  • Pour in egg whites, cheddar cheese, and cottage cheese, stirring to combine. (You can whisk these together in a bowl first, but I'm in the less-dishes-is-better camp. If you're not using all egg whites, you'll have to get out that bowl and whisk.)
  • Move to preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until eggs are set. Cool slightly before slicing into wedges and serving.
  • May be served hot, room temperature, or even cold.

Perfect for a Sunday brunch but wonderful any ol' time. Cook's Notes: This recipe can be easily doubled. It is plenty as is if there are side dishes to accompany it but may not be enough for more than 3 or 4 eaters if it is the only dish. Also, feel free to garnish with yummy things like sour cream, pico de gallo, salsa, avocado slices, etc.

GREEN CHILE FRITTATA

Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 large eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon good-quality chile powder
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves only, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 1/2 roasted red peppers (pimiento), sliced into strips
2 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 1/2 cups grated Mexican Manchego or Jack cheese
Sprigs of cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the eggs with the salt, pepper, chile powder, and cilantro. Whisk with a fork until evenly blended and set aside.
  • In a 10-inch non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden. Add the red pepper and the poblano and cook for 2 minutes more. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and swirl the bottom of the pan with a fork to mix the vegetables with the eggs. Reduce the heat to medium-low, scatter the cheese over the top and cook the frittata slowly, covered, until the eggs are set almost all the way through. Shake the pan back and fourth on the burner occasionally to be sure the frittata is not sticking. Place the pan under a broiler on medium for a minute or two just to set the top of the frittata completely. Remove from the heat and let the frittata set in the pan for 10 minutes. Place a round platter on the top of the pan and invert the frittata onto it. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro and serve warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.
