Broccoli Frittata Recipes

BROCCOLI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Place rack in the center of your oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
• If your chicken is not yet cooked: Cook and shred chicken.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli and peppers and sauté until they are beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the green onions, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook 1 additional minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, then add cheese, chicken, and the vegetables from the skillet. Stir to combine, then pour into the prepared pie dish.
• Bake 40 minutes, until the center is nearly set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove and let sit 5 minutes then serve warm or at room temperature. The frittata will puff while baking, then settle a bit as it cools.

BROCCOLI AND CHEDDAR FRITTATA

Steps:

• Separate 4 of the eggs, putting the whites into a medium sized bowl and discarding the yolks. Add the 4 whole eggs and 2 tablespoons of water to the whites and whisk well.
• In a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet heat the oil over a medium flame. Add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and a few turns of 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 but is somewhat liquid in the middle, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. 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.

BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR FRITTATA

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk eggs, cream, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until bubbly. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chopped broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Lightly season vegetables with additional salt and pepper.
• Gently pat the vegetables into an even layer with the back of a spatula or spoon and turn off the heat. Sprinkle cheese over the vegetables, followed by bacon.
• Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently shake to eliminate any holes around the vegetables. Let the residual heat cook the eggs slightly, about 2 minutes.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Check for doneness by using a knife to cut the center slightly. Eggs should not be runny enough to fill the cut. Allow to cool in the skillet for 5 minutes before serving.

BROCCOLI CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut broccoli stems into 1/2-inch pieces, and cut florets into 1-inch pieces; set aside. Melt butter in a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat. Add onions; cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli stems, and cook until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add florets and water, and cook until broccoli is tender and liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl to cool completely.
• Wipe out pan; coat with cooking spray. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine eggs and egg whites. Beat until extremely light and foamy, 8 to 10 minutes. Heat pan over medium-high heat. Fold Parmesan and broccoli mixture into eggs. Add to pan; dot top with goat cheese. Cook, without stirring, for 2 minutes. Transfer to oven; bake until top is golden brown and frittata is set, about 30 minutes. Let cool 1 minute before sliding out of pan. Serve hot or at room temperature.
