How To Make pancetta vegetable frittata

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350ºF. In a large bowl, combine eggs, sour cream, Italian seasoning, hot paprika, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper; whisk until well blended. Add 2/3 goat cheese, whisk and set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a 12-inch cast iron over medium heat, add oil and when hot, add pancetta. Cook until it starts to crisp, 6 to 7 minutes; transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
  • Step 3
    Return skillet to burner and add leeks; sauté for 2 minutes. Add peppers and add a pinch of sea salt; cook for 3 minutes. Throw in asparagus and cook just enough to remove bitterness about 2 minutes. Return pancetta then add garlic; sauté for 1 minute. Add potato cubes until gently stir. Add a few splashes of hot sauce, stir and cook until potatoes are heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Turn off the heat and whisk egg mixture before pouring in the vegetable mixture; stir to blend. Drop the remaining cheese on top and sprinkle with smoked paprika.
  • Step 5
    One to two minutes later when the outside edges start to thicken, transfer to preheated oven. Cook until eggs are puffy but center jiggles a little, about 10 to 13 minutes. Turn broil on and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat to cool off, about 15 minutes. Makes 8 servings
