GREEK FRITTATA WITH DILL-FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs, 2 tablespoons water, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, scallion whites and oregano and cook until the scallions are golden, 1 to 3 minutes. Add the egg mixture and stir with a rubber spatula to evenly distribute the scallion mixture. Draw the edges of the egg toward the center of the pan with the spatula a few times.

Add the lettuce, dill and scallion greens; season with salt and pepper and toss. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup feta. Cut the frittata into wedges and serve with the salad.
