Chicken Frittata Recipes

LEFTOVER ROAST CHICKEN FRITTATA

Steps:

• Slice the onion and peppers in to thin strips. Add the olive oil to a deep (25cm / 10") non stick pan and gently fry the peppers and onion until soft and starting to turn golden. Turn out onto a plate to cool. This can be done ahead of time, and then kept in the fridge in a covered container for a day.
• Meanwhile whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
• Add the chicken, potatoes, and peppers to the egg. Stir together, and pour the mixture into the frying pan. Use a spatula to gently push the ingredients down so they are covered in the egg,
• Cook over a low heat for about 10 minutes until the bottom of the frittata is golden brown (lift and check with a spatula), and set. The top should still be liquid. As it cooks on the hob, heat up your grill.
• Cook the top half of the frittata under the grill for a further few minutes until puffed up and golden brown. The frittata should be cooked all the way through: you don't want any of the egg to still be liquid. Check the middle with a knife.
• Turn the frittata out onto a serving plate, and enjoy! Serve with a crunchy green salad.
