John's Baked Frittata
Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup marinara sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon finely shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
  • 2 slices toast
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 400 degrees Fahrenheit or 200 degrees Celsius.
2
Spoon a generous amount of marinara sauce into the base of a small, shallow baking container. The depth should be approximately 1/4 inch, allowing for even cooking.
3
Add a pinch of heat to the sauce by sprinkling red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper over its surface. A handful of chopped parsley adds freshness and color.
4
Create a small indentation in the center of the sauce, providing a designated area for the eggs to sit.
5
Carefully crack one egg into a separate container, then gently pour it over the marinara sauce in the baking dish.
6
Add a layer of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle a dollop of cream over the eggs.
7
Season to taste by adding a pinch of salt and black pepper, allowing each individual to customize their dish.
8
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until the yolks are just cooked through, taking around 10 to 12 minutes.
9
Serve with toasted bread for a satisfying and filling meal.
