Mediterranean Swiss Chard Frittata
Mediterranean Swiss Chard Frittata
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup whole milk
- ½ teaspoon of sea salt
- ½ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
- ½ cup grated mild cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ½ large sweet onion, diced
- 2 cups shredded Swiss chard, stems removed and diced
- 2 cloves peeled garlic, minced
Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon sea salt and pepper. Add shredded cheese and mix. Set aside.
Heat oven-proof non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan on medium high. Add olive oil to warm and add diced onion. Sauté onions for 3 minutes while adding diced Swiss chard stems to soften. Add shredded Swiss chard leaves and sauté for 2 minutes to wilt. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Reduce heat to medium low and add egg mixture to sautéed onions and wilted greens. Using tongs, arrange greens evenly throughout the pan. Cook eggs in pan about 3-4 minutes until they are set before placing pan in oven to bake for 5 minutes.
For a browned, crispy top, place the frittata under the broiler for a minute or two at the end of cooking.
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.
