Crab and Asparagus Frittata
Shaved Fennel and Celery Salad
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- ⅓ cup milk
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 Tbsp snipped fresh tarragon or basil
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper (optional)
- 2 tsp olive oil
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1½ cups bias-cut fresh asparagus (1-inch pieces)
- 2 Tbsp water
- 6 oz fresh or canned lump crab meat, drained, flaked, and cartilage removed
- ⅓ cup bottled roasted red sweet peppers, drained and chopped
- 2 Tbsp snipped fresh Italian parsley (optional)
- Bottled hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat broiler. In a bowl whisk together the first five ingredients (through salt). If desired, add pepper. Heat oil in a large broiler-proof skillet over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook 2 minutes. Add asparagus and water; cover and cook 4 to 5 minutes. Drain off liquid.
- Sprinkle crab and roasted peppers over asparagus in skillet. Pour egg over skillet mixture; cook over medium. As mixture sets, run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting egg so uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking and lifting edges until egg is almost set (surface will be moist).
- Place skillet under broiler 4 to 5 inches from heat; broil 1 to 2 minutes or until top is just set. (Or preheat oven to 400°F; bake 5 minutes or until top is just set.) If desired, serve sprinkled with parsley and serve with hot sauce.

- 1 (5-oz) pkg torn mixed salad greens
- 3 stalks celery, thinly sliced
- 1 medium fennel bulb, trimmed, cored, and thinly sliced
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese (4 oz)
- Bottled vinaigrette dressing
Side Dish Instructions
- In a very large bowl combine greens, celery, fennel, and Parmesan. Drizzle with vinaigrette; toss gently.
