Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ounces pancetta, diced (I used bacon)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne (my add — it gave it a subtle kick)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a touch of olive oil in a 10-inch skillet on medium heat. Drop in the pancetta or bacon and cook until the pieces are golden.
  2. While the pancetta is cooking, whisk together the eggs, cream, cayenne, salt and pepper.
  3. Pour the eggs over the pancetta. Stir once to mix all of the ingredients, then cook for 5-6 minutes without stirring.
  4. Place a large plate over the skillet and flip the skillet. Slide the frittata back into the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, so that the other side browns.
  5. Slide the frittata onto a plate and cut into wedges. Serve with bread and a simple green salad.
