Directions
Wash the Swiss chard; cut off stems, mince, and set
aside. Roughly chop the leaves. Heat 1 tablespoon
olive oil in a 9-inch skillet with an ovenproof handle.
Add onion, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and rosemary. Sauté
10 minutes over medium heat, until the onions are
very soft and just starting to brown. Stir in the Swiss
chard leaves and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, and
sauté 1 to 2 minutes, or until the greens are just
wilted. Remove from heat, stir in garlic and Swiss
chard stems, and set aside.
Whisk eggs in a bowl. Add the Swiss chard
mixture and goat cheese, and stir to combine. Wash
and dry the skillet and return to stove top.
Turn on the broiler, then heat the remaining
tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat.
When the oil is very hot, pour in the vegetable-egg
mixture and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the
eggs are set on the bottom.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated broiler and
broil for about 3 minutes, or until the frittata is fi rm
in the center and golden on top. Use a rubber
spatula to loosen the frittata from the skillet and
invert onto a large round plate. Cut into wedges
and garnish with tomato slices.
