Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 0.25 cups heavy cream
- 4 oz smoked salmon
- 3 oz cream cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 0.5 red onion
- 1 cups baby spinach
- 2 tbsp fresh dill
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Set the mixture aside.
Chop the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and tear the cream cheese into small dollops. Finely dice the red onion and roughly chop the fresh dill.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a medium, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet, stirring gently to distribute the onion and spinach evenly.
Scatter the smoked salmon pieces, cream cheese dollops, and chopped dill evenly over the top of the eggs.
Allow the frittata to cook on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and slightly golden on top.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for a couple of minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and garnish with additional dill, if desired.
