Carbonara Frittata Recipe



Carbonara Frittata

INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 - 6 slices thick bacon, cut across in 1/4" slices
  • 1/2 of a small sweet yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 large garlic clove, crushed
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Generous grinding of coarse black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 8 ounces angel hair pasta, cooked in salted water per package directions, and rinsed with cool water then drained
  • 1 tablespoon oil
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Place bacon slices in a medium size ovenproof frying pan set over medium high heat. Fry until medium well. Add onion and continue cooking until they are transparent. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute longer. Transfer to a small bowl with a slotted spoon; set aside.
  3. Place eggs, mustard, Parmesan, whipping cream, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes in a large bowl. Whisk until mixture is well combined and frothy. Add cooked pasta to the egg mixture and toss well to coat; set aside.
  4. Wipe out the same frying pan that the bacon was cooked in with paper towels. Place back on a medium high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot and shimmering, pour in the pasta mixture. Cook for approximately 5 minutes or until the bottom is brown when lifted slightly with a spatula.
  5. Transfer to the preheated oven and cook for approximately 20 minutes, give or take 5 minutes or so, or until it is slightly firm in the center.
  6. Carefully remove from the oven and invert onto a large plate, then slide back into the frying pan. Return the pan to your cook top over medium high heat. Brown the "top" for approximately 5 minutes, checking for desired color by lifting slightly with a spatula.
  7. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges or bite size morsels.
