How To Make A Frittata
A frittata is one of those menu items that sounds fancy, but it really isn’t. A frittata is actually really easy to make, super easy to customize, and you can actually make it in a variety of ways. So, if you are looking for an easy breakfast recipe, lunch idea, or “brinner” recipe, make a frittata. You can’t go wrong!
What exactly is a frittata? Think of a crust-less quiche.
Key Ingredients To Make A Frittata
- Eggs
I mean, really, you could get away with making a plain egg frittata but it may be a little boring.
I love adding fresh veggies and a little meat to my frittatas. For this frittata recipe I used:
- Eggs
- Mini Sweet Peppers – you could substitute a regular bell pepper
- Sweet Onion
- Steak – I had it leftover from dinner the day before, you can use any protein that you would like. BACON! Or leave it off for a meat-free frittata.
Simple Additions
- CHEESE! You can definitely top your frittata with cheese…and a lot of it.
Why I love making frittatas:
- They are EASY.
- I can use whatever veggies and protein I have in the refrigerator.
- They are pretty inexpensive to make.
- They look fancy when you serve a slice.
- Hellmann’s Creamy Sriracha Sauce is the perfect topping.
Well, Hellmann’s Creamy Sriracha Dip and Sauce is delicious on a lot of things, like my Chicken Fried Rice or my Egg Roll In A Bowl. But it’s a simple addition to your simple frittata that will really take your frittata to the next level. Plus, who doesn’t like creamy sriracha sauce?!
How do you make a frittata:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Prepare the vegetables that you will be using – wash, dry, dice.
- Dice cooked meat.
- Heat a small amount of oil over medium heat in cast iron skillet or similar skillet that is oven safe.
- Saute your vegetables.
- Once the vegetables are soft, add in the cooked meat.
- Crack eggs into a medium size bowl, scramble with fork.
- Pour eggs into the skillet.
- Allow egg mixture to cook for about a minute, then place in the oven.
- Cook for 7-10 minutes until eggs are cooked throughout.
- Slice, serve, top with Hellmann’s Creamy Sriracha Sauce.
Do you have to bake a frittata?
Nope! When I don’t feel like warming up the oven, I follow the directions as listed above but instead of putting it in the oven, I cover the skillet with a lid and allow the egg mixture to cook until done. About 5-10 minutes depending how big your frittata is.
We love a little flavor in most of our meals, that’s why I like using Hellmann’s Creamy Sriracha Sauce on my frittatas. I saw it when I was at Publix this week, and then I noticed there was a coupon as part of the Family Celebrations promotion, so I had to get it.
