How to Make Potato Red Pepper And Cheese Frittata

  1. Cube 1 lb potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Boil in salted water until tender but firm (about 10-12 minutes). Drain well.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add 1 red bell pepper (sliced) and ½ cup chopped yellow onion. Cook with 1 teaspoon dried oregano for 5-6 minutes.
  4. Add 2 cloves minced garlic during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  5. Stir in the cooked potatoes and sauté for 1 minute.
  6. In a bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, ¼ cup heavy cream, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper (or cayenne pepper to taste).
  7. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.
  8. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the edges are set (about 5-7 minutes).
  9. Sprinkle ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  10. Broil in the preheated oven (high broil) for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  11. Let the frittata rest for 1 minute before slicing into 8 wedges.
  12. Serve warm and enjoy!
