Type: Eggs
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

2   Strips bacon - cut 1/2" pieces
1   Onion - halved lengthwise,
  And slivered
1   Red bell pepper - cut 1/4" strips
1   Green bell pepper - cut 1/4" strips
2 tablespoons 30mlOlive oil - (optional)
4   Eggs - lightly beaten
3 tablespoons 45mlMilk
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
2   Thin slices baked ham - coarsely slivered
1 tablespoon 15mlChopped flat-leaf parsley

Recipe Instructions

Place bacon pieces in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet and cook over medium heat about 6 minutes to render fat. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon to a paper towel to drain. Reduce the heat to low.

Add the onion and peppers to skillet (add the olive oil, if necessary) and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the drained bacon pieces.

Preheat the broiler. Beat the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, ham and parsley in a bowl. Pour over the vegetables in the skillet.

Cook the egg mixture on the stove over medium heat until the bottom is set and the top is still slightly wet.

Place the skillet under the broiler, 4 to 6 inches from the heat source, until the top of the frittata is puffed and set, 2 to 3 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve immediately with warm, crusty bread.

This recipe yields 2 to 4 servings.
