Directions
- Rinse and dry all produce.
- Heat the oven to broil and position the rack in the upper third.
- Warm an ovenproof skillet over medium heat.
- Cut the bacon crosswise into 1/4-inch strips.
- Cook the bacon until crispy, then transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and leave the rendered fat in the skillet.
- Trim and thinly slice the shallot(s).
- Add the shallots to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until softened.
- Medium dice the potatoes and add them to the skillet; cook until they soften, stirring occasionally.
- Remove kale stems, chop the leaves, and add them to the skillet; cook until wilted but still green.
- Whisk together the eggs with water, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, top with the bacon, and cook until the edges begin to set but the top remains runny.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil until the top is set and lightly browned; remove and slice into wedges for serving.
Two tips
- Prep the shallots and kale up to a day ahead and refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Leftover frittata reheats well; rewarm in a skillet to help regain a bit of crustiness.
