Pasta Frittata With Sausage And Cherry Peppers Recipes

SAUSAGE AND RED PEPPER FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe, 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the pieces with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink in the middle and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage to a plate. Add the pepper and onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the rosemary and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, cream, cheese, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper together in a large bowl until combined. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the sausage. Pour the egg mixture on top and gently stir to incorporate the fillings. Bake until the eggs are just set and no longer jiggly in the middle, 50 to 55 minutes.
• Let sit for 5 minutes before sliding the frittata out of the skillet onto a serving platter. Slice into wedges to serve.

FRITTATA WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS WITH ROASTED CHERRY TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper, yellow pepper, and onions, season with salt, and pepper and cook until softened, stirring occasionally.
• Whisk together the eggs, Parmesan, and oregano until light and fluffy, and then season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir with a rubber spatula. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set up on top. Place the pan into the oven and broil for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and fluffy. Remove from pan and sprinkle the top with parsley. Carefully slide the frittata onto a cutting board and cut into wedges and top with some of the roasted cherry tomato sauce and garnish with fresh basil. Serve hot or at room temperature.
• Sauce:
• To a saute pan add the olive oil. Add the tomatoes and garlic paste over medium heat. Cook until the tomatoes are soft, about 2 to 3 minutes and the tomatoes burst. Remove the pan from the heat and add the basil.

SAUSAGE AND PEPPER FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Coat a nonstick 10-inch saute pan with olive oil. Add the sausage and brown. Add the peppers and saute until they are soft.
• In a bowl, add the Parmigiano to the beaten eggs and season lightly with salt. Using a heat-proof rubber spatula, stir the eggs into the pan with the sausage and peppers. Stir the eggs to evenly distribute the sausage and peppers throughout the eggs. Once the eggs set on the bottom and around the sides of the pan, place the pan in the preheated oven for 7 to 8 minutes or until the eggs are cooked through. Remove from the pan. Cut into wedges and serve hot or a room temperature.

CHERRY TOMATO, SAUSAGE, ARUGULA, RICOTTA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the tomatoes with the olive oil, vinegar and thyme leaves and season with salt and pepper. Put in a small baking dish in one layer and roast until completely soft and the juices have evaporated, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly. Leave the oven on. Heat the canola oil in a 10-inch nonstick pan over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the sausage and cook until golden brown, and then transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Remove the fat from the pan. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Fold in the drained sausage, tomatoes, provolone and Romano cheeses, arugula and chopped parsley and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Season the ricotta with salt and pepper as well and set aside. Heat the butter in the nonstick pan. Add the egg mixture and stir to evenly distribute the ingredients using a heatproof rubber spatula. Cook until the eggs set on the bottom and around the sides of the pan, and then transfer to the oven. Bake until the eggs are cooked through and the top is lightly golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Loosen around the sides of the pan with a rubber spatula and flip onto a serving platter or cutting board. Top with the ricotta and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Grind some black pepper over the top, and scatter the whole parsley leaves over all.

PASTA FRITTATA WITH SAUSAGE AND CHERRY PEPPERS

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, Parmesan, olive oil, cherry peppers, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in large bowl until egg is even yellow color; set aside.
• Cook sausage in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, breaking up sausage with wooden spoon, until fat renders and sausage is about half cooked, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Remove skillet from heat. Transfer sausage mixture (some sausage will still be raw) to bowl with egg mixture and wipe out skillet.
• Bring water, pasta, vegetable oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt to boil in now-empty skillet over high heat, stirring occasionally. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender, water has evaporated, and pasta starts to sizzle in oil, 8 to 12 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook pasta, swirling pan and scraping under edge of pasta with rubber spatula frequently to prevent sticking (do not stir), until bottom turns golden and starts to crisp, 5 to 7 minutes (lift up edge of pasta to check progress).
• Using spatula, push some pasta up sides of skillet so entire pan surface is covered with pasta. Pour egg mixture over pasta. Using tongs, lift up loose strands of pasta to allow egg to flow toward pan, being careful not to pull up crispy bottom crust. Cover skillet and continue to cook over medium heat until bottom crust turns golden brown and top of frittata is just set (egg below very top will still be raw), 5 to 8 minutes. Slide frittata onto large plate. Invert frittata onto second large plate and slide it browned side up back into skillet. Tuck edges of frittata into skillet with rubber spatula. Continue to cook second side of frittata until light brown, 2 to 4 minutes longer.
• Remove skillet from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Using your hand or pan lid, invert frittata onto cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve.
