Broccoli And Cheddar Frittata - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
4 large eggs
4 large egg whites
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small red onion, cut in half and sliced into half-moons
2 cups frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
2 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
Preparation
-
Preheat the broiler.
Combine the whole eggs, egg whites, and water in a medium bowl and whisk well.
In a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet, covering them evenly. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let cook until the egg mixture has set around the edges of the pan but is still somewhat liquid in the middle, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese.
Place the skillet under the broiler about 2 inches from the heat until the surface is set and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook or the egg mixture will become tough.
Cut the frittata into 8 wedges and serve.
