Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 12

10 eggs
2 tbls. fresh lemon juice
1/4 c. fresh chopped Italian parsley
salt, as needed
4 oz. crumbled feta cheese (about 1 c.)
3 c. lightly packed fresh baby spinach
3 tbls. extra virgin olive oil
8 oz. Yukon gold potatoes, halved or quartered
1 1/2 c. thinly sliced red onion
freshly ground black pepper
lemon wedges, for garnish
parsley springs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 1. Beat together eggs, lemon juice, parsley and a pinch of salt. Stir in cheese and spinach. Reserve. 2. In a 12" nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add potatoes and onions; sprinkle lightly with salt. Cook over medium-low heat until potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes. Turn mixture with spatula occasionally, scrapping the bottom of the pan to prevent potatoes from sticking. Do not allow to brown. 3. Pour egg mixture over potatoes and onions, stirring gently (without scraping the bottom of the pan). Cook 2 minutes to set egg on bottom and side. 4. Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove cover; bake until done. Center should be firm and almost dry, about 5 minutes. Let frittata cool 10 minutes. Lightly season with salt and pepper. 5. With a narrow spatula, loosen frittata around edges. Cut frittata into 8 pieces. Serve with lemon wedges and sprigs of parsley. TIP: Cut frittata into bite sized squares for hors d'oeuvres.
