Best 2 Carbonara Frittata Recipes

CARBONARA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the pancetta in an 8-inch nonstick saute pan with enough olive oil to coat the pan. Cook over low heat until most of the fat renders out. Increase the heat to medium high and cook until the pancetta is brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes total. Drain and reserve a little bit of the fat if there is too much in the pan. Remove half the pancetta with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• In a medium bowl, combine the eggs and Pecorino and whisk until well combined. Taste and season with salt only if needed (the Pecorino is usually pretty salty so be SURE to taste the egg mixture before salting).
• To the pan with the pancetta, add half the cooked spaghetti, and half the egg mixture. Place the pan over medium heat and stir the mixture gently with a heatproof spatula. As the eggs around the edges start to set, pull them in and tip the pan so more eggs run to fill in the gaps. Do this for a couple minutes and then toss the pan in the preheated oven for 4 to 5 minutes or until the eggs are set in the center.
• Remove the pan from the oven, sprinkle with chives, and serve immediately or at room temperature.
• Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients and pan drippings for another frittata.

PASTA CARBONARA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Make the frittata Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425°F. Bring a 4-quart pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions. Drain. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk, then whisk in the pecorino and cream. Heat the oil in a 10-inch, ovenproof, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Add the onion and sage and cook until the onion is translucent and the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Add the pasta and toss to distribute the ingredients evenly. Gently pour in the egg mixture. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 12 to 15 minutes. Loosen the edges with a silicone spatula and slide the frittata onto a cutting board. Make the salad Whisk together the oil and vinegar in a small bowl. Put the radicchio, arugula, and shallot in a large bowl and toss with just enough of the vinaigrette to coat. Season with 1/2 tsp. sea salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Sprinkle more black pepper on the frittata. Slice and serve with additional pecorino and the salad.
