Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp.

    olive oil

  • 1 lb.

    Yukon Gold or russet potatoes (about 3 small), very thinly sliced

  • 1 1/2 tsp.

    kosher salt

  • 12

    large eggs

  • 1/3 cup

    half-and-half

  • 2 cups

    shredded cheddar cheese

  • Black pepper, to taste

  • 8 oz.

    fresh chorizo, casings removed

  • 1

    orange bell pepper, chopped

  • 4

    scallions, thinly sliced

  • 3

    garlic cloves, finely chopped

Directions

    1. Step 1Preheat the oven to 400 ̊. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium- high heat. Add the potatoes, spreading them out, and season with 1⁄4 teaspoon salt. Cook, undisturbed, until golden brown and crisp on the bottom, about 7 minutes. Flip the potatoes, sprinkle with another 1⁄4 teaspoon salt and continue to cook, flipping and reducing the heat as needed, until crisp all over, 8 to 10 more minutes.
    2. Step 2Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, 1 cup cheese, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
    3. Step 3Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring and breaking it up into smaller pieces, until browned in spots, about 3 minutes. Add the bell pepper and scallions (reserve some of the green parts for garnish) and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
    4. Step 4Add the potatoes and egg mixture to the skillet and stir well to evenly distribute. Cook, undisturbed, until the frittata is just set around the edges, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup cheese, then transfer to the oven and bake until golden and set in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the skillet, then top with the reserved scallion greens.
