We first made this in January of 2008 for a UMA related brunch
- A 6 oz jar of artichoke hearts, or 1/2 package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
- olive oil
- medium red pepper, chopped
- medium red onion, chopped
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese plus another 1/4 cup for topping
Drain artichoke liquid into a glass measuring cup and add enough olive oil to measure 1/3 cup. Heat this mixture in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, add peppers and onion, garlic, basil and parsley and cook until tender, about3-4 minutes. Stir in artichoke hearts and cook for another minute or two.
Beat eggs, salt and pepper together in bowl until blended. Stir in the 1/2 cup of swiss and pour over vegetable mixture in the skillet. Cover and cook over medium low heat until eggs are set and beginning to brown on bottom. Set oven control to broil, move skillet to the oven and broil frittata with top about 5 inches from heat until golden brown. Sprinkle with the rest of the cheese and serve.
