Time 40m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
8 ounces Swiss chard, leaves cut into 2-inch pieces, stems finely sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup Cooked Rye Berries
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh dill
1/2 cup chopped scallions (from 3 to 4)
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup ricotta

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler with rack in top third. Heat 1 tablespoon oil and garlic in a 10-inch broilerproof nonstick skillet over medium. When fragrant, add chard stems and leaves. Season with salt and cook, stirring, until just tender, 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper until well combined. Stir in rye berries, chard leaves and stems, and all but 1 tablespoon combined chopped herbs and scallions.
  • Return skillet to medium-high heat; add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add egg mixture and cook, stirring with a spatula to create large curds, until eggs are just beginning to set, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, dollop with ricotta, and transfer to oven. Broil until eggs are puffed, just set, and beginning to brown in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Garnish with remaining chopped herbs and scallions, and serve warm or room temperature.

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.

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.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Before you start cooking, chop your vegetables, herbs, and cheese, and measure out your ingredients. This will make the cooking process go much smoother.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help to prevent the frittata from sticking and make it easier to flip.
  • Cook the frittata over medium-low heat: This will help to prevent the eggs from overcooking and becoming rubbery.
  • Don't overcook the frittata: The frittata is done when the eggs are set and the cheese is melted. Overcooking will make the frittata dry and tough.
  • Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help to prevent the frittata from falling apart.
  • Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature: The frittata can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Conclusion:

The Swiss chard frittata with rye berries is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is packed with vegetables, protein, and fiber, and it is also low in calories and fat. The rye berries add a nutty flavor and texture to the frittata, and they also make it more filling.
