Ingredients for Allessio S Frittata Tomatoes And Sweet Peppers

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Onion
  • Sweet Red Pepper
  • Hot Red Pepper
  • Fresh Tomato
  • 6 large eggs
  • Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • Parmesan Cheese

How to Make Allessio S Frittata Tomatoes And Sweet Peppers

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (10-12 inches) over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced, and cook for 4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
  3. Add 1 red bell pepper (seeded and chopped), 1/2 green bell pepper (seeded and chopped), 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced - adjust to your spice preference), and 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste).
  6. Add the cooled vegetable mixture to the egg mixture and stir gently to combine.
  7. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
  8. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared skillet.
  9. **Stovetop Method:** Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the edges are set and the bottom is lightly browned. Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully invert the frittata onto the plate. Slide the frittata back into the skillet, add another teaspoon of olive oil, and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until cooked through.
  10. **Oven Method:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden brown. Sprinkle with an additional 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
  11. Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing.
  12. Slide the frittata onto a serving platter. Slice into wedges and serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
