Description

Imagine sinking your fork into a rustic frittata, a dish that evokes the charm of a countryside breakfast. This frittata is more than just a meal; it's an experience, a warm embrace of flavors and textures that come together in perfect harmony. Picture a medley of savory pork sausage, browned to a delightful crispness, its rich, meaty essence infusing every bite.

Intertwined with the sausage are vibrant, fresh spinach leaves, their earthy notes providing a counterpoint to the savory sausage, adding a touch of freshness and color to the dish. Nestled within this savory combination are generous pockets of provolone cheese, melting into gooey pools of deliciousness. As the frittata bakes, the cheese transforms into a golden, bubbling layer, its mild, slightly tangy flavor complementing the other ingredients.

The entire creation is baked in a cast iron skillet, lending a subtle, rustic char to the edges and ensuring even cooking throughout. The skillet itself becomes part of the presentation, adding to the frittata's comforting, home-style appeal. Each slice of this country-style frittata offers a symphony of textures: the crispness of the sausage, the tenderness of the spinach, the melt-in-your-mouth cheese, and the subtle firmness of the egg base.

The aroma alone is enough to awaken the senses, a blend of savory meat, fresh greens, and baked cheese that fills the kitchen with warmth and anticipation. This frittata is not only delicious but also versatile. Serve it for a leisurely brunch with friends, a hearty breakfast on a weekend morning, or even a light yet satisfying supper.

It pairs perfectly with a simple green salad or a side of fresh fruit. Its comforting nature makes it a welcome addition to any table, any time of day. It’s a dish that invites you to slow down, savor each bite, and enjoy the simple pleasures of good food and good company.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Set the mixture aside.
    2.
    Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat. Ensure the skillet is thoroughly heated before adding the ground breakfast sausage. Break up the sausage with a spoon and cook until browned and slightly crispy.
    3.
    Tear the spinach leaves into smaller pieces and add them to the skillet with the sausage. The spinach will wilt quickly. Stir it into the sausage until just cooked.
    4.
    Break one slice of provolone cheese into four pieces and distribute them evenly over the sausage and spinach mixture in the skillet. Immediately pour the egg mixture over the ingredients. Cook on medium heat until the edges begin to set and turn golden, but the center is still slightly jiggly (about 5-7 minutes). Adjust the heat to prevent burning.
    5.
    Remove the skillet from the stovetop. Cut the remaining provolone cheese into quarters and arrange them evenly over the frittata. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the egg is fully cooked through.
    6.
    Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool slightly. Slice it into four portions. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
