PRO TIPS:
- To save time, you can make this frittata on a weekend and serve it later. Store in foil in your refrigerator and reheat when needed.
- To reheat, pop it in an oven heated to 170 Celsius for 10 to 15 minutes. (Do not overheat.) Or wrap it in a kitchen paper towel, set it on a microwavable plate or container and microwave it on medium-high for a little over 1 minute.
COOKING STEPS
- Preheat your oven to around 170 to 175 Celsius (or 350 F).
- Prepare and measure out all the ingredients as indicated.
- Lightly grease the insides of a 23-centimetre (or 9-inch) baking pan with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.
- Open a pack of Pioneer Poultry Smoked Chicken Breast Fillets and take out about 150-200 grams (roughly half the contents). Slice that into bite-size pieces.
- In a large skillet set over medium heat, pour in the remaining olive oil. Add the leeks and sauté these until slightly soft. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Beat until these are blended and slightly frothy.
- Gently fold in the yogurt or sour cream, chicken pieces, cooked leeks, parsley, shredded cheese, any leftover bacon/sausages/meat (optional), oregano and thyme.
- Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the mixture sets or turns solid. (Be careful not to burn or overcook.)
- Serve while still warm. To serve, cut the frittata into squares or rectangles. Salt and pepper to taste (optional).
