Skillet Eggs With Mushrooms And Asparagus Food

MUSHROOM AND ASPARAGUS FRITTATA WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven or toaster oven to broil.
• Spray a 7- to 8-inch non-stick fry pan with cooking spray and warm on medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes, turning once or twice. Add the asparagus and cook for 1-2 minutes more.
• Whisk the eggs in a bowl with 1 teaspoon water and a pinch of kosher salt until light and frothy, then pour into the mushroom and spinach mixture. Sprinkle with the green onion and the goat cheese.
• Cook the eggs undisturbed until the edges begin to pull away from the edge of the pan and begin to set. Gently lift the edges of the egg and tilt the pan so the uncooked egg runs under the cooked part and cook for another minute or so.
• Transfer the fry pan to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes or until the eggs have puffed and have cooked through.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with more goat cheese if desired. Cut into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.

FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Drizzle olive oil over the mushrooms and asparagus on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast until a nice color is achieved, about 12 minutes. Set aside.
• Beat together the eggs with some salt and pepper in a bowl. (Do not over-beat; just mix until the eggs mostly come together.) Stir in the Monterey Jack, Parmesan and hot sauce and set aside.
• In a large ovenproof nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and golden brown, several minutes. Add the diced potatoes, sprinkle with salt and pepper and stir to cook for a couple of minutes. Finally, add the asparagus, mushrooms, olives and roasted red peppers and cook, stirring, until everything is hot.
• Make sure all the ingredients are evenly distributed across the bottom of the skillet, then pour in the egg mixture so that it evenly coats everything. Let it sit on the burner for 30 to 45 seconds to set the edges, then put the skillet in the oven. Cook, watching it carefully, until the eggs are set but not very brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Slide the frittata out of the skillet and onto a cutting board. Sprinkle on the basil and slice into wedges with a long serrated knife.
