Swiss Chard And Sausage Frittata Recipes

SWISS CHARD AND SAUSAGE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat broiler with a rack set 4 in. from heat. Heat oil in a large, ovenproof frying pan over high heat. Cook sausage, stirring often, until browned, about 3 minutes. Add bell pepper, mushrooms, and onion and cook until vegetables are softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in Swiss chard, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk eggs in a large bowl until starting to foam. Stir in cheese and salt. Pour mixture into pan with vegetables; cook on stove until the bottom sets, about 3 minutes. Broil until firm and browned, 3 minutes.

SAUSAGE & KALE, SPINACH, OR SWISS CHARD FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat a 10-inch or larger skillet with oil. Add the onion and sauté about 2 minutes before adding the garlic. Cook another minute before adding the sausage - if it's precooked, sauté another couple minutes to heat through, if sausage isn't precooked, sauté until cooked thoroughly and no pink is showing.
• Add the chard, kale, or spinach, stir a bit, and cover for about 4 minutes to steam.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and milk (or water) together and season with salt and pepper. Add half of the cheese and stir to mix.
• Remove the cover and stir the mixture in the skillet. Let it cook a little more, allowing any liquid to evaporate. Pour the eggs evenly over the top. Do not stir - let the eggs set around the edges and somewhat in the middle.
• Turn on the oven broiler to preheat.
• Using a thin spatula, lift the edges and tip the pan so the liquid egg from the middle runs to the edge and under the cooked egg. Continue all the way around the edge until most of the egg is cooked.
• Put the pan under the broiler (cover the handle with foil if it is not oven proof) and broil 3-5 minutes until all the egg is cooked and the top is browning (Put the tip of a knife in the middle of the frittata to see if the egg is cooked through.)
• Remove from under broiler, sprinkle with remaining cheese and then broil for another minute until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.

• Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and top with the soppressata. Cook until the edges start to set, 3 minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden and set, about 12 minutes.

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.
