Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup cooked turkey (shredded or diced)
- 2 medium bell peppers (mixed colors, diced)
- 1 medium yellow onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the diced bell peppers and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the cooked turkey to the skillet and stir to combine. Heat for 1-2 minutes.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and turkey in the skillet. Use a spatula to gently distribute the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese (if using) over the top.
Cook the frittata on the stovetop over medium heat for 5-6 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and lightly golden on top.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and enjoy!
