Frittata With Greens Herbs And Goat Cheese
I adapted this recipe from one i found in an old martha stewart holiday book. I made some adjustments in herbs and took out the potatoes since my husband is low carbing. Added the greens in that i had on hand and voila! Delicious dinner with the roasted red pepper soup also posted in my cookbook.
Steps
Heat a 10-12-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat.
Add 1 t olive oil.
Saut pancetta or bacon until browned but not crisp.
Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Without cleaning skillet , toss in chopped garlic and saut just until fragrant , about 30 seconds.
Immediately toss in chopped greens and saut until wilted.
Remove to a plate and keep warm.
In a blender , food processor or large bowl , combine eggs , milk , herbs , half the goat cheese and the pepper.
Using a blender or food processor eliminates the need to chop the herbs and works more air into the eggs , giving better volume during cooking.
Preheat oven to 350f.
Heat butter and oil in same skillet , making sure to work oil up sides of pan.
Return greens to pan and then pour in egg mixture.
Cook over med heat for about 8 minutes until partially set , using a rubber spatula to pull cooked egg away from sides , allowing liquid egg to fall underneath.
Crumble pancetta and remaining goat cheese over top of frittat.
