Equipment

  • medium skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup chorizo sausage cooked and diced
  • 1 bell pepper diced
  • 1 tomato sliced and/or diced
  • 1/2 small red onion (or yellow or white) diced
  • 1/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 jalapeno seeds removed and diced
  • 1 tsp garlic paste
  • olive oil for cooking
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together.
  • Add a little olive oil to your skillet. Sauté the peppers, chorizo, onion, garlic, and jalapeño on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes. (Add time if your chorizo or other meat filling was raw.)
  • Lower the heat to medium. Pour the scrambled egg mixture into your skillet. Stir in the diced tomato, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese. (Tomato slices can be laid on top for a nice presentation.)
  • Cover the pan with a lid. Let the frittata cook over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, or until you see that the edges have become golden brown and the top is fully cooked.
  • Serve as is or with salsa and/or sour cream.
