Artichoke & Red Pepper Frittata
Â
2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
4 large eggs
1 14-oz. can artichoke hearts packed in water, rinsed and coarsely chopped
1/4 C. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. salt, or to taste
freshly ground pepper to taste
Â
Heat 1 tsp. oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl. Stir in artichoke hearts, Parmesan, oregano, salt, pepper, and the bell pepper mixture. Having set a rack about 4 inches from the heat source, preheat the broiler.  Brush the pan with the remaining 1 tsp. oil; heat over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and tilt to distribute evenly. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the bottom is light golden, lifting the edges to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath, 3 to 4 minutes. Place the pan under the broiler and cook until the top is set, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Slide the frittata onto a platter and cut into wedges.
