Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 large eggs
1 1/2 cups chopped tender herbs (such as basil, cilantro, and/or parsley)
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
4 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 (15.5-oz.) cans chickpeas, rinsed,patted dry
2 tsp. medium curry powder
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, 5 thinly sliced, 1 whole
1 small bunch hardy greens (such as mustard, kale, or Swiss chard), ribs and stems removed, leaves torn into 2" pieces
2/3 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk eggs, herbs, sour cream, red pepper flakes, and 1 tsp. salt in a bowl until no streaks remain.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium cast-iron or ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add chickpeas and curry powder and season with salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Transfer 1 cup chickpeas to a bowl; set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium, add onion, sliced garlic, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil to chickpeas in skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and starting to brown, 7-9 minutes.
  • Add a handful of greens and 2 Tbsp. water and cook until slightly wilted. Continue adding greens a handful at a time, letting them wilt slightly before adding more, until all greens are wilted, about 5 minutes total; season with salt. Let cool 3 minutes.
  • Return pan to medium-low, pour in egg mixture, and cook, stirring eggs and swirling pan often, until edges are just set (texture should be like a very soft scramble), about 6 minutes. Transfer to oven and bake frittata until puffed slightly and center is barely set, 10-15 minutes. Let cool 5-10 minutes.
  • Place mayonnaise in a small bowl and grate in remaining garlic clove; mix well. Season with salt.
  • Serve frittata with garlic mayo and reserved chickpeas.
