Eat like a pro: Frittata
Start your day like an England Rugby player with chef's breakfast frittata recipe.
What you will need (makes four portions)
- 8 free range eggs, cracked & whisked
- 100g chorizo, diced
- 1 whole red pepper, diced
- 3 spring onions, sliced
- 10g parsley, chopped
- 80g feta, crumbled
- 20g fresh rocket, washed
- Salt
- Black pepper
- 10 ml Olive oil
Method
- First, pre-heat oven to 160 degrees.
- In a non-stick pan over a medium heat, add your chorizo and begin to dry fry, allowing the chorizo to release its natural oils and spices, stirring regularly.
- Add the chopped vegetables and parsley, then cook for a further four minutes or until slightly soft and season well with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the cooked ingredients to a lined ovenproof dish and spread the ingredients evenly across the base.
- Pour the egg mix over the ingredients and place in the oven for 12-15 minutes, ensuring the egg mix is cooked through and firm to the touch.
- Allow the frittata to cool naturally before turning out and portioning.
- Once sliced, garnish with the fresh rocket, feta, cracked pepper and olive oil.
- Alternatively, the frittata can be portioned and placed into an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can serve it cold as a snack or bite-sized portions as a re-fuel during and after training sessions.
