Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 large eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon good-quality chile powder
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves only, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 1/2 roasted red peppers (pimiento), sliced into strips
2 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 1/2 cups grated Mexican Manchego or Jack cheese
Sprigs of cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the eggs with the salt, pepper, chile powder, and cilantro. Whisk with a fork until evenly blended and set aside.
  • In a 10-inch non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden. Add the red pepper and the poblano and cook for 2 minutes more. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and swirl the bottom of the pan with a fork to mix the vegetables with the eggs. Reduce the heat to medium-low, scatter the cheese over the top and cook the frittata slowly, covered, until the eggs are set almost all the way through. Shake the pan back and fourth on the burner occasionally to be sure the frittata is not sticking. Place the pan under a broiler on medium for a minute or two just to set the top of the frittata completely. Remove from the heat and let the frittata set in the pan for 10 minutes. Place a round platter on the top of the pan and invert the frittata onto it. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro and serve warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.

Tips:

  • Use fresh Hatch green chiles. They have a unique flavor that can't be replicated with other types of chiles.
  • Roast the chiles before using them. This will help to mellow their flavor and make them easier to digest.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. You can use a variety of breads, such as French bread, sourdough, or even croissants.
  • Make sure the bread is stale before using it. This will help it to absorb the egg mixture and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the strata a rich and complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the strata. It should be cooked until the center is just set.
  • Serve the strata immediately. It is best enjoyed when it is hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Hatch green chile strata is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It is perfect for using up leftover bread and vegetables. With its unique flavor and creamy texture, this strata is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
