Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 medium yellow potato
• 2 cups kale leaves, chopped (stems removed)
• 8 ounces sausage (Italian or breakfast sausage, casings removed)
• 8 large eggs
• 0.25 cup whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel and dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon, for 5-6 minutes or until browned and fully cooked. Transfer the cooked sausage to the same plate as the potatoes.

Step 5

Add the chopped kale to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until it wilts slightly. Turn off the heat and set the skillet aside.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 7

Return the potatoes and sausage to the skillet, spreading them evenly across the bottom. Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring it coats the ingredients evenly.

Step 8

Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and the center is set (a knife inserted into the center should come out clean).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Serve warm, garnished with additional grated Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs if desired.
