Frittata with Tuna and Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs, beaten, at room temperature
  • Two 5-ounce cans tuna packed in olive oil, drained and flaked into 1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces, such as Flott
  • 1/4 cup milk, at room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 tablespoon anchovy paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) mascarpone, at room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Zest of 1 small lemon

Instructions

  1. Watch how to make this recipe.
  2. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  3. For the frittata: Mix together the eggs, tuna, milk, parsley, anchovy paste, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Heat the oil and butter over medium-high heat in an oven-safe, 10-inch nonstick skillet. Add the egg mixture and cook, without stirring, for 5 minutes. Arrange the tomatoes on top of the egg mixture and cook until a crust forms on the underside and the sides of the mixture have set, about 3 minutes.
  4. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the center is set, for 6 to 8 minutes. Using a heat-resistant spatula, loosen the sides of the frittata and slide onto a serving plate.
  5. For the topping: Mix together the cheese, salt and lemon zest in a medium bowl.
  6. Cut the frittata into wedges and serve with a dollop of the topping.
