Ingredients
  

  • 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

Instructions
 

  • 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. 

Notes

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)
