Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup heavy cream
12 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 14.75-ounce can salmon, drained, bones and skin removed
1 tablespoon chopped dill, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium leeks, white part only, sliced, rinsed and drained (about 2 cups)
3 ounces crumbled goat cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Whisk the heavy cream, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Gently break up the salmon with a fork in another bowl. Fold the salmon and dill into the egg mixture. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a medium nonstick ovensafe skillet over medium high. Add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and carefully pour in the egg mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula to evenly distribute the leeks. Sprinkle the goat cheese on top.
  • Bake until the center of the frittata is just set, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer the frittata with a rubber spatula to a serving platter or cutting board. Garnish with chopped dill, slice and serve.
