Description

This sunny breakfast dish is big on flavor and protein, but takes less than 10 minutes to make.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Large Eggs
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅛ teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 whole Sun-dried Tomatoes, Thinly Sliced
  • 1 piece (1/2-inch Thick) Fresh Mozzarella (bocconcini), Sliced Into 1/4-inch Pieces
  • 2 leaves Fresh Basil, Chiffonaded (rolled And Thinly Sliced)

Preparation

Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk until combined. Heat a small, heatproof nonstick skillet (I used an 8-inch one) over medium heat. Add the eggs.

Cook the eggs, without stirring or shaking the pan, until the bottom is cooked but there is still layer of raw egg on top. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, and top with the sun-dried tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.

Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the top of the frittata is just starting to brown and is slightly puffed.

Thinly slice the basil leaves. Remove frittata from the oven, slide it onto a plate (use a spatula if necessary), and sprinkle the basil over top. Serve immediately.

Enjoy it! That is one of the great things about this recipe – you only need to have the stovetop and oven on for a minimal amount of time so the kitchen doesn’t heat up too much.

I’m making this tonight for a light supper on a humid day.

I doubled the recipe and made this for myself and a house guest for brunch – it was outstanding! My chickens provided the eggs, and I am always on the lookout for new egg recipes. I live in the middle of nowhere and was surprised to find that the Walmart carried fresh mozzarella and sundried tomatoes. This one is definitely a keeper. I served it with oven-baked sweet potato fries.
