Mushroom Chard Frittata Recipes

MUSHROOM CHARD FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Heat the olive oil in the ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms until soft and lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Add the chard and cook until limp and still bright, about 4 minutes, then reduce heat to medium.
• In the medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour into the pan, making sure the mixture covers the pan completely. Sprinkle the chives and green onions around the top and gently pat them into the egg mixture. Cover and cook until almost set, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle the cheese all over the top, then transfer to the oven and broil 3 minutes or until the egg is set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for minute, then cut into wedges and serve.

MUSHROOM-CHARD FRITTATA

• In medium bowl, beat eggs, whipping cream, salt and pepper until well blended. Pour over mushroom mixture. Cook 8 to 9 minutes, without stirring, until eggs are set around edge and beginning to brown on bottom (egg mixture will be uncooked on top). Sprinkle with cheese.
• Broil frittata with top about 5 inches from heat about 4 minutes or until eggs are cooked on top and light golden brown. (Frittata will puff up during broiling but will collapse when removed from broiler.) Cut into squares.

MUSHROOM AND SCALLION FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat olive oil in a medium ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add scallions, mushrooms, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cover, and cook until the vegetables are very soft, about 15 minutes. (The vegetables start out piled high, but they cook down quickly.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pour egg mixture over the vegetables, stir for 2 minutes, then cook for 3 to 4 minutes more. Sprinkle cheese over the frittata, and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.

SWISS CHARD AND MUSHROOM FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 12-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet with olive oil cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion, and saute until mushrooms start to release their juices, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium low, and cook until mushrooms are soft and golden brown. Add Swiss chard, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper, and cook until wilted and all the liquid has evaporated. Transfer to a baking pan lined with paper towels, and set aside.
• Combine eggs, egg whites, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and whip until soft peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Coat a clean 12-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet with olive-oil cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat. Add two-thirds of the egg mixture to the pan, layer with reserved vegetables, and top with remaining egg mixture. Sprinkle top with Parmesan, and transfer pan to oven. Cook until eggs are set and frittata is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Run a spatula around edges of pan to loosen frittata if necessary; transfer to a serving plate. Cut into wedges, garnish with thyme sprigs, and serve.

• Bake at 375 degrees for 14-16 minutes for regular size muffin cups or 10 minutes for mini muffin cups, or until either is set and slightly puffed.
• Serve warm.

CREAMY GRITS WITH MUSHROOMS AND CHARD

Steps:

• Make the grits: Cook the grits with water according to the package instructions in a large, heavy-bottomed pot, stirring occasionally and adding more water if needed to ensure no grits stick to the pot. The cook time can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the age and quality of the grits. When the grits are tender, remove from the hot burner and pour in the oat cream, oil and salt, stir well, and cover. (If you cooked the grits with salt, then start with 1 teaspoon and add more to taste.) Set aside.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium. Once heated, add the onion quarter, jalapeño and garlic cloves. Char and slightly cook the vegetables, turning occasionally. The garlic will likely be done first, after 4 or 6 minutes. Place each item in a bowl when charred and cover with a lid.
• When the charred vegetables are cool to the touch, remove the outer skin of the onion, the jalapeño stem and the garlic peels. If you are very sensitive to spice, slice the jalapeño in half lengthwise and remove one half's seeds and white veins to make it much milder.
• In a blender or mini food processor, blend the onion, jalapeño and garlic with the lemon juice, olive oil and cilantro until smooth. Add more olive oil if needed to blend, 1 tablespoon at a time. Clean the mushrooms with a damp towel and break apart or cut at the stem into 2-inch pieces. Place the mushrooms in a bowl and pour the jalapeño sauce on top; let sit for at least 15 minutes.
• Make the chard: Place the chard shiny side down on a cutting board and slice the stems and ribs away from the green leaves. Stack the leaves in a pile and cut crosswise into thin strips. Transfer to a bowl, toss with 2 tablespoons oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Cut the chard stems into 2-inch-long matchsticks. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water with the jalapeño, vinegar, garlic, onion and sugar, and bring to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat, add the chard stems and let sit, uncovered, for at least 10 minutes.
• Heat a medium cast-iron skillet over medium, add the chard leaves and cook, using tongs to move them around quickly in order to keep their bright green color, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Set over medium-high heat. Shake excess sauce off the mushrooms back into the bowl; too much sauce will cause them to steam instead of sear. Add the mushrooms to the hot oil, and cook until tender and caramelized, 2 to 5 minutes per side.
• To serve, spoon the grits onto a large platter and top with the chard, mushrooms and pickled stems.

CHARD FRITTATA

Steps:

• Wash the chard thoroughly; put in a large kettle and steam over medium heat in the water that clings to the leaves. Cover pot while steaming. When chard is tender, after about 10 minutes, drain, reserving liquid for another use, like making a broth, and coarsely chop the tender leaves.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the butter and oil in a saute pan, a straight-sided quiche pan or a shallow baking dish that can go in the oven. When the butter has melted and the foam begins to subside, add the minced shallots and saute briefly until they are translucent but not brown. Add chopped chard and mix well. Remove from heat.
• In a bowl combine eggs, cream, salt and pepper and beat thoroughly. Pour this batter over the chard, lifting edges of the chard with a fork to let batter run underneath. Dot the top with cheese cubes and put in middle of oven. Bake 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove and let cool slightly. To serve, cut into squares or wedges.
