French Onion Frittata
This is meal is perfect for breakfast or dinner. The caramelized onions, roasted potatoes, eggs, cheese, and fresh chives make for tasty meal. I roasted tomatoes and topped them with balsamic glaze for an added burst of flavor.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil (I used a garlic basil infused olive oil)
2 tablespoons butter
1 sweet onion sliced
4 cloves garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 red potatoes sliced thinly
2 cups grated sharp cheddar
12 large eggs beaten
2 tablespoons fresh chives diced
1 tomato sliced
drizzle of balsamic glaze
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Add 1 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter to a nonstick skillet and heat to medium.
- Add the onions, garlic, and thyme. Cook stirring the onions until they brown for 14-16 minutes.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 1-2 more minutes.
- Remove onions to a plate and set aside.
- Add another tablespoon of olive oil and remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet and allow it to melt.
- Spread out the potato slices over the olive oil and butter and cook for 5 minutes stirring to coat both sides of the potatoes with the olive oil mixture.
- Turn the heat down to low.
- Press the potatoes down in a single layer over the base of the pan.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the potatoes.
- Add the onions over the cheese.
- Pour the eggs over the onions.
- Sprinkle the chives on top.
- Bake for 20 minutes-25 minutes until eggs are set.
- I served this with sliced tomatoes brushed with olive oil and topped with salt and pepper that I roasted for 10 minutes at 375 degrees.
