Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or butter
  • 1/4 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cups baby arugula packed
  • 4 oz. cooked salmon flaked apart
  • 4 oz. feta cheese chopped or crumbled
  • 8 eggs beaten
  • kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat the olive oil (2 tablespoons) in a medium oven-safe skillet (such as a stainless steel or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet) over medium high heat.
  2. Sauté the sliced red onion (1/4 cup) in the oil until softened and starting to brown, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add the arugula (2 cups packed), season with salt and pepper to taste, and turn the heat down to medium. Stir until arugula has wilted, about 2 minutes.
  4. Stir in cooked salmon (4 oz.), feta (4 oz.), and 8 beaten eggs and season again with salt and pepper, if needed.
  5. Keep stirring for about one minute, until eggs begin to set a bit.
  6. Place under the broiler for 6-8 minutes, or until eggs have set and top of frittata is golden brown.
