Ingredients

• 8 oz Italian sausage (bulk or links, casing removed)
• 2 cups Yukon Gold potatoes (diced into 1/2-inch cubes)
• 8 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Cook the sausage, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked (about 6-8 minutes). Remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the potatoes and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and stir to combine.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and potatoes in the skillet. Use a spatula to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed. Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, until the edges begin to set.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and the top is lightly golden.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, then slice and serve immediately.
