Veggie Sriracha Frittata

A frittata is a thick Italian-style omelet that is chock-full of goodies; think of it as a quiche without a crust. Rather than cooking up a large version and cutting it into wedges as is often done, I prefer to make individual frittatas in a muffin pan. It cooks a bit faster, makes a great presentation, and couldn’t be easier to serve to your guests.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes 12 servings

Ingredients

12 eggs
4 tablespoons water
1/4 cup Sriracha
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup diced sweet onion
1/2 cup grated russet potato
1/2 cup diced zucchini
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
4 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
Diced tomato, for garnish
Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for garnish

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray or a mist of olive oil.

    Step 2

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, and Sriracha with some salt and pepper until slightly frothy. Set aside.

    Step 3

    Heat the oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, potato, zucchini, bell pepper, and mushrooms, stirring to evenly distribute the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables soften, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    Step 4

    Divide the vegetable mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each no more than halfway full. Any vegetable mixture remaining can be kept warm in the oven and used as a topping for garnish. Divide the egg mixture evenly among the cups.

    Step 5

    Bake until the eggs are firm and fully cooked in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Turn the frittatas out from the pan and plate, garnishing with diced tomato, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and any extra vegetables that were set aside, if desired.
