SWISS CHARD FRITTATA

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 13

24 cherry tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, smashed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
18 large eggs
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large white onions, halved and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
6 to 8 ounces Swiss chard, stems sliced thin, leaves sliced into ribbons
3/4 cup cow's milk feta, crumbled

Steps:

  • Tomatoes: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a 9-inch pie plate, place tomatoes and garlic cloves. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, thyme, light-brown sugar, and salt. Drizzle over tomatoes and garlic and bake in the oven until tomatoes are wilted and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes. Set aside.
  • Frittata: Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees, with the rack in the upper third of the oven. Lightly beat eggs in a large bowl with a whisk. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add the stems of the chard; cook until tender, 3 minutes. Add the chard leaves and stir to combine. Cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Cook, using a heatproof spatula to gently stir and push eggs from edges to center of pan so runny parts run underneath, until eggs begin to set, about 2 minutes.
  • Scatter cooked tomatoes on top of the frittata and evenly distribute feta cheese on top. Transfer frittata to oven and cook until top is set and has puffed slightly, about 15 minutes.
  • Gently run a spatula around the edges and underneath the frittata and carefully slide out of the pan onto a cutting board. Slice into wedges and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     casseroles, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch Swiss chard
1 pound green tomatoes, sliced a little less than 1/2 inch thick
Cornmeal for dredging (about 1/2 cup)
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
3 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup low-fat milk
3 ounces gruyere cheese, grated (1/2 cup, tightly packed)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin with olive oil. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil, and fill a bowl with ice water. Stem the chard and wash the leaves in two changes of water. Rinse the stems if wide and dice. Set them aside. When the water comes to a boil, add the chard leaves and blanch for about one minute. Transfer to the ice water, cool for a minute and drain. Squeeze out excess water and chop. Set aside.
  • Season the sliced tomatoes and the cornmeal lightly with salt and pepper. Dredge the tomatoes in the cornmeal. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and fry the sliced tomatoes for two minutes on each side, just until lightly colored. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in the skillet in which you cooked the tomatoes, and add the onion and the chopped chard stems. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic, and cook together for another minute, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the thyme and the chopped chard, and stir together for minute over medium heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Whisk in the milk. Stir in the cheese and the chard mixture. Transfer to the gratin dish. Layer the tomatoes over the top. Place in the oven, and bake 30 to 40 minutes, until set and beginning to brown.

CHARD FRITTATA



Chard Frittata image

Provided by Nancy Harmon Jenkins

Categories     breakfast, main course

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds chard, preferably green and red, mixed
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup minced shallots or onions
5 eggs
4 tablespoons light cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup cubed Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Wash the chard thoroughly; put in a large kettle and steam over medium heat in the water that clings to the leaves. Cover pot while steaming. When chard is tender, after about 10 minutes, drain, reserving liquid for another use, like making a broth, and coarsely chop the tender leaves.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Put the butter and oil in a saute pan, a straight-sided quiche pan or a shallow baking dish that can go in the oven. When the butter has melted and the foam begins to subside, add the minced shallots and saute briefly until they are translucent but not brown. Add chopped chard and mix well. Remove from heat.
  • In a bowl combine eggs, cream, salt and pepper and beat thoroughly. Pour this batter over the chard, lifting edges of the chard with a fork to let batter run underneath. Dot the top with cheese cubes and put in middle of oven. Bake 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove and let cool slightly. To serve, cut into squares or wedges.

SWISS CHARD FRITTATA



Swiss Chard Frittata image

A healthy alternative to the cheesy omelet: a frittata studded with Swiss chard, which delivers iron, potassium, and fiber. Using mostly egg whites in place of the usual whole eggs lowers the calorie count.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large egg
10 large egg whites
1/3 cup fresh part-skim ricotta cheese, pressed through a fine sieve
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 leaves Swiss chard (4 ounces), sliced 1/2 inch thick crosswise (1 1/4 cups), stalks removed and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces (1/2 cup)
1/2 large onion (4 ounces), thinly sliced crosswise (1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk together egg, whites, ricotta, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Heat oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add Swiss chard stalks and onion, and cook until onion is tender and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add Swiss chard leaves, and cook, stirring, until tender, about 1 1/2 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add egg mixture, and stir once or twice to distribute vegetables evenly. Place skillet in oven, and bake until eggs have set, about 13 minutes. Serve immediately.
