Salmon Frittata With Quail Eggs
Ingredients
- 40 Quail Eggs
- 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 200 g Salmon Fillets fresh or cooked leftovers
- 200 g broccoli
- 2 spring onions
- 20 cherry tomatoes
- 100 g Greek Yogurt or any creamy, high protein yogurt
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Start off by preheating your oven. In order to waste no time, rinse your vegetables thoroughly, and chop them. Cut the cherry tomatoes into halves and chop the spring onions.
- Next, take a saute pan large enough for your ingredients and pour some extra virgin olive oil in it. This way you can be sure that the veggies won’t stick to the pan. Heat up the oil over medium heat. When it gets hot enough add the tomatoes and scallions and saute them for approximately 2-3 minutes until they turn barely soft.
- While the vegetables are cooking, whisk the quail eggs in a bowl. Add the high-protein or Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
- Then, cut or tear the salmon fillets into small pieces and place them on in the baking dish. Lay the broccoli on top of the fish and season with a little salt and pepper. Now, pour the egg mixture on top and bake for 30 minutes on medium.
- In order to check if the salmon frittata with quail eggs is set, use a toothpick. Insert it right in the middle and if it comes out clean, you can take the dish out of the oven. If it’s not clean, bake the frittata for another 10 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on it. You don't want to burn it.
- Remove the salmon frittata with quail eggs from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving. You can also reheat it for leftovers.
Nutrition
Of course, if you’d prefer your frittata to be more golden-brown, then turn the broiler on for a couple of minutes.
I hope this delicious lunch/dinner recipe will fill you with protein, fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants and lift your spirits.
