Herbed Frittata with Edamame
Turn on the broiler to prepare this twist on an Italian omelet that uses shelled sweet soybeans and a blend of Italian cheeses in the recipe.
Ingredients
-
8 eggs
-
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions (about 2)
-
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
-
1 Tbsp. olive oil
-
1 cup shredded Italian cheese blend (4 oz.)
-
1 medium carrot, shredded or cut in ribbons
-
1 cup frozen shelled sweet soybeans (edamame), thawed
-
Fresh cilantro
-
Shaved Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
1.
Heat broiler. Break eggs into medium bowl. Whisk together eggs, 1/3 cup water, green onions, chopped cilantro, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and ground black pepper; set aside.
2.
Heat olive oil in 12-inch broiler-proof skillet with flared sides over medium heat. Add egg mixture. Lift edges of egg mixture as it sets, allowing uncooked mixture to flow underneath. When edges begin to set (top is soft, but not runny), place eggs under broiler, 3 to 4 inches from heat. Cook 1 minute or just until set. Top with cheese; return to broiler just until cheese is melted.
3.
Cut frittata in wedges. To serve, stack wedges, top with carrot shreds, edamame, and additional cilantro. Makes 4 servings.
