Savory Macaroni and Chicken Meatball Frittata

Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup cooked macaroni
  • 4 chicken meatballs, sliced
  • 1 medium carrot, diced
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3 whole black peppercorns
  • 1 stalk green onion, sliced
  • Salt and sugar, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon powdered milk (I use Dancow Madu)
  • Cooking oil

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by dicing the carrot into small, cube-like pieces. Slice the chicken meatballs into thin rounds. Finely chop the onion and green onion, and mince the garlic. Grind the black peppercorns using a mortar and pestle or a grinder.

  2. Cook the Vegetables and Meatballs: Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant and translucent. Stir in the diced carrot and sliced chicken meatballs, cooking until the vegetables are tender and the meatballs are fully cooked. Season with salt and sugar to taste.

  3. Combine Macaroni and Seasoning: Add the cooked macaroni to the skillet, mixing well with the vegetables and meatballs. Stir continuously to ensure even distribution and seasoning. In a small bowl, mix the powdered milk with a splash of water to create a smooth mixture, then pour it over the macaroni mixture. Stir well and cook for another minute. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together with a pinch of salt and the sliced green onion. Ensure the mixture is well combined.

  5. Cook the Frittata: Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over low heat. Add a small amount of cooking oil and allow it to warm. Pour the macaroni and meatball mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly. Carefully pour the beaten egg mixture over the top, ensuring it covers all the ingredients.

  6. Finish Cooking: Cover the skillet with a lid and cook over low heat until the surface of the frittata is set and dry, about 10-15 minutes. Avoid high heat to prevent burning the bottom while ensuring the center is fully cooked.

  7. Serve: Once cooked through, carefully slide the frittata onto a serving plate. Slice into wedges and serve warm. For extra flavor, you can garnish with additional green onions or serve with your favorite chili sauce.

Enjoy this delicious and hearty frittata, perfect for a satisfying breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner!
