Cooking Tools Required

Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Mixing spoon, Saute pan

Ingredients

  • 12 egg large
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¾ cup cheddar cheese grated
  • ¼ cup fresh chive finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1 onion small, thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ cup frozen hash brown potato slightly thawed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl beat together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cheese and chives. Set aside.
  • Heat a large non-stick, oven-proof skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When butter has melted add the sliced onion. Saute for several minutes until the onions are translucent and golden brown.
  • Add the potatoes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for an additional minute, then distribute the mixture evenly across the bottom of the pan.
  • Pour in the egg mixture and let it cook for about a minute to set the edges.
  • Place skillet in the oven and cook for 10 minutes, or until eggs are set but not overly brown on top.
  • Slide the frittata out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, slice into 8 equal wedges.
