Ingredients

  • 2 large egg
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 sun-dried tomatoes thinly sliced
  • 1 piece (1 ½-inch thick) fresh mozzarella cheese cut into ¼-inch pieces
  • 2 basil leaves chiffonaded
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk until combined. Heat a small, heatproof nonstick skillet (I used an 8-inch one) over medium heat. Add the eggs.
  • Cook the eggs, without stirring or shaking the pan, until the bottom is cooked but there is still layer of raw egg on top.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and top with the sun-dried tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.
  • Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the top of the frittata is just starting to brown and is slightly puffed, 1 to 2 minutes. Watch it carefully so it doesn't burn.
  • Remove frittata from the oven, slide it onto a plate (use a spatula if necessary), and sprinkle the basil over top. Serve immediately.
