PAN-ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TALEGGIO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat the broiler.
• Whisk the cream, eggs and some salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• Heat the butter and oil in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof saute pan over high heat. Add the onions, squash and sage and saute until lightly browned and tender, about 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and wait 2 minutes to allow the pan to come down to temperature. Pour the egg mixture over the squash and onions and cook until the eggs start to set, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese and continue to cook until the frittata is almost set but the top is still runny, about 4 minutes.
• Place the frittata under the broiler and broil until the top is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the pan and invert it onto a plate. Cut into wedges and serve.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTATA

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Put the squash in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup water; season with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and pierce a few times with a knife to vent; microwave until tender, 8 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Whisk the eggs and 1/4 cup water in another large bowl until frothy.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring, until it just starts browning, 3 minutes. Add the squash, bell pepper and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pepper is tender and the squash starts browning, 5 minutes. Stir in the scallions and cook 1 minute. Transfer to the bowl with the eggs using a slotted spoon; stir.
• Wipe out the skillet. Coat the bottom with 2 tablespoons olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and spread in an even layer. Cook until the edges are golden, 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until just set in the center, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Toss the arugula with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Loosen the edge of the frittata and unmold onto a plate; cut into wedges. Serve with the salad.
