Ingredients

3 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup onions, chopped

3 tablespoons green chilies

2 ounces chorizo sausage

2 ounces each of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses

1 tablespoon olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

2 ounces Pico de Gallo: (See recipe on side bar.)

1 ounce sour cream

1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

On the stove top, heat the olive oil is a medium sized skillet.  Add chorizo, onions, chilies and sauté for 2 minutes until sausage is cooked.  Pour beaten eggs into the skillet and stir with a heat-safe rubber spatula.  Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the eggs are set on the bottom and begin to set on top.  Sprinkle with about half of the cheese mixture.  Transfer the frittata to the oven and continue to bake at 375 degrees for about 4 minutes or until the top is light brown and fluffy.

Slide out of the pan onto a serving dish and top with remaining cheese, Pico de Gallo, sour cream, and cilantro.

Makes 3-4 servings.

A frittata is a type of Italian Omelette that frequently features fillings such as meats, cheeses, and vegetables. Like a normal omlette, a frittata is prepared in a skillet. However, whereas a normal omelette is cooked on a stovetop and served folded, a frittata is first partially cooked on a stovetop but then finished under the broiler and served.
