Isernio’s Italian Sausage, casings removed, or 1 Italian Chicken Roll
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
8 eggs

Let's Cook

Heat 2 tsp. of the oil in a 12" nonstick skillet on medium-high. Add the onions, red bell peppers, red pepper flakes and cook for 10 minutes, or until soft. Add 1/2 tsp. of the salt, pepper and the garlic. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 3 minutes. Transfer the onion mixture to a large bowl.  Preheat the oven to 350°.

In another nonstick skillet, on medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking up with a flat wooden spoon, until the pinkness disappears then discard the rendered fat, if any. Add the sausage and the parsley to the onions and mix well.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk to aerate. Stir into the onion/sausage mixture.

Heat the remaining 2 tsp. of oil in a 12" nonstick oven-proof skillet on medium-high heat. Pour in the frittata mixture, making sure everything is distributed evenly, and cook for 2 minutes. Put skillet in oven and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Switch oven setting to broil and place skillet under broiler for 5 minutes, until top is golden.
