Equipment

oven, stovetop, measuring spoon, oven safe skillet, mixing bowl, whisk, spatula, knife, cutting board, oven mitt, serving plate

Instructions

  1. Mise En Place

    Gather measured eggs, spinach, feta, onion, olive oil, salt, and black pepper, plus an oven safe skillet, bowl, whisk, spatula, and knife. · 5 min

    What to look for: All ingredients are measured and tools are within reach.

  2. Heat Pan

    Heat the oven to 204°C / 400°F, then warm olive oil in the skillet over medium heat until it looks glossy. · 3 min

    What to look for: The oil shimmers lightly across the pan surface.

  3. Soften Onion

    Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and lightly translucent, about 3 minutes. · 3 min

    What to look for: The onion looks glossy and pale with no raw bite.

  4. Wilt Spinach

    Add spinach and cook until wilted and most surface moisture has evaporated, so the frittata will set cleanly. · 2 min

    What to look for: The spinach is dark green and the pan is not watery.

  5. Whisk Eggs

    Whisk eggs with salt and black pepper in the bowl until the yolks and whites are fully blended. · 2 min

    What to look for: The egg mixture is even yellow with no visible streaks.

  6. Add Feta

    Fold crumbled feta into the eggs, then pour the mixture over the spinach and onion in an even layer. · 1 min

    What to look for: Feta pieces are scattered evenly through the eggs.

  7. Set Edges

    Cook on the stovetop until the edges look set and the center remains loose, about 2 minutes. · 2 min

    What to look for: The outer rim is firm while the middle still jiggles.

  8. Bake Frittata

    Bake the skillet until the top is puffed, the center is just set, and a knife inserted near the center comes out moist but clean. · 8 min

    When it is done: Center reaches 71°C / 160°F and no liquid egg pools when the skillet is gently tilted.

  9. Serve Frittata

    Serve the frittata after 3 minutes of resting, sliced into 2 wedges, warm or cooled for meal prep. · 3 min

    What to look for: Slices hold their shape and show green spinach and white feta throughout.
