- 1/4 cup Bacon Thick cut, cut to lardons
- 1/2 ea Sweet Onion Peeled, Small Dice
- 2 ea Russet Potatoes Medium, Peeled, Small dice
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese Grated
- 2-4 ea Chili Peppers Washed, stemmed, cut on bias, TO TASTE
- Salt and Pepper To taste
In a cast iron skillet over medium heat, render out the bacon, remove and reserve
Add the potatoes, peppers and onions and cook until tender, ~10 minutes
While the potatoes and onions are cooking, add the eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper to a medium-size bowl and whisk until completely combined and smooth. Do try to work as much air into the mixture as possible.
Return the bacon to the pan, and follow with the eggs
Constantly push the eggs from the outside of the pan to the inside, to mix and create a small curd.
When the eggs are slightly runny on top, about 4 to 6 minutes, invert the frittata using a plate, place it back into the skillet runny side down, and finish cooking for 2 to 3 minutes.
Serve the frittata in the skillet or on a serving platter or plate.
Garnish with additional parmesan cheese, parsley, and rosemary.
Note on lardons:
Lardon is just a fancy word for slab bacon sliced into matchsticks (there's some debate as to appropriate dimensions, but about¼-inch thick, 1-inch long seems to be a sweet spot)
