Ingredients
1 tbsp
Extra virgin olive oil
4 clove(s)
Garlic
(minced)
3 medium shallot(s)
Shallots
(finely diced)
1 tsp
Sea Salt
1 tsp
Black pepper
1/2 head
Broccoli, raw
(florets and stalks chopped finely)
1 cup
Baby spinach
6 medium
Egg
(preferably organic and free range)
1 tbsp
Parsley, fresh
(chopped finely)
1 tbsp
Chives
(chopped finely)
1/2 can (10oz)
Artichoke hearts, canned
(drained)
4 green onion (stem)
Green onion
(chopped finely)
1 dash
Black pepper
(freshly cracked)
1 cup
Goat cheese, soft
1 tsp
Sriracha
(to taste)
Instructions
Preheat your oven and set it to “Broil” at 500°F (260°C).
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and sauté minced garlic and shallots for 1-2 mins. Season sea salt and pepper.
Add broccoli, stir, and let cook for another 4-5 mins until soft.
Next, stir in spinach until wilted.
While veggies are cooking whisk eggs, parsley, and chives, in a mixing bowl, until fully incorporated.
On the stovetop, pour whisked eggs evenly over the vegetable mixture.
Stir in the eggs and then top with artichoke hearts. Cook for a few minutes until the eggs start to set.
Reduce stovetop heat to medium-low and cook until the eggs have almost set but the top is still runny, about 2 minutes.
Then put the skillet in the oven under the broiler until the top is set and golden brown on top, about 5 minutes.
Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh cracked pepper and let the frittata stand for 2 minutes.
Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the skillet and slide the frittata onto a plate to cut into slices.
Garnish with green onion, crumbled goat cheese, and Sriracha (optional)! The goat cheese adds a lovely tart creaminess and the Sriracha gives it some great spice!
