Corn Frittata Parmesan

This is good at room temperature as well as warm. Try it out on kids; leftovers are good to pack in brown-bag lunches.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Light olive oil

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine the first 3 ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together. Add a little salt and pepper and stir again.

    Step 2

    Heat just enough oil to coat the bottom of a 9-inch nonstick skillet. When hot, pour in the egg mixture. Cover and cook over medium heat until the bottom is golden brown and the top is fairly set, about 5 minutes.

    Step 3

    Slide the frittata out onto a plate. Invert the skillet over the plate and quickly flip over so that the frittata goes back into the skillet, uncooked side down. Remove the plate, return the skillet to the heat, and cook the second side, uncovered, until golden brown.

    Step 4

    Slide the frittata back onto the plate, let cool for a few minutes, cut into wedges, and serve.
