Ingredients

• 2 medium potatoes
• 6 slices bacon
• 8 large eggs
• 0.25 cups milk
• 1 small onion
• 1 cups cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices. Dice the onion and chop the parsley.

Step 2

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the potato slices in a single layer and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and lightly golden, flipping occasionally. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy, about 8 minutes. Remove the bacon, crumble it, and set aside, leaving about 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease in the skillet.

Step 4

Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and golden.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and half of the chopped parsley.

Step 6

Reintroduce the potatoes and crumbled bacon into the skillet, spreading them evenly. Pour the egg mixture over the top and gently shake the pan to distribute the eggs evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low and cook the frittata on the stove for 5 minutes, allowing the edges to set.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden and puffy.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with the remaining parsley before slicing and serving.
