Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 2 quart baking dish.

Cut the kale into bite sized pieces. Heat a few inches of water in a steamer pot over medium-high heat and steam the kale for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and side aside to cool.

In a suate pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it becomes soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, a bit of salt & pepper, and the paprika. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Add in the kale, stir, and saute for 2 more minutes.

Beat the eggs in a medium bowl and season with S&P if desired.

Transfer the kale and onion mixture to the prepared baking pan and then pour the eggs over top of the kale, covering it evenly.

Bake for 8-10 minutes until the eggs are firm. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Massage & Dry Your Kale 🥬
After steaming, massage the kale with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, preventing a watery frittata and ensuring better texture integration with the eggs.
Pre-Cook Aromatics Separately 🧅
Sauté garlic and onion until deeply caramelized before adding kale—this concentrates their sweetness and prevents raw garlic harshness in your finished dish.
Temper Your Eggs with Heat 🥚
Before pouring beaten eggs over hot ingredients, slowly add a spoonful of the warm kale mixture to your eggs while whisking to prevent them from scrambling on contact.
Finish Under the Broiler 🔥
In the final 2 minutes of baking, switch to your broiler for 30 seconds to create a delicate golden top while keeping the interior creamy and custardy.
Season the Eggs, Not Just the Pan 🧂
Salt and pepper your beaten egg mixture directly before cooking rather than seasoning only the vegetables—this ensures even flavor distribution throughout every bite of the frittata.
