Delicious and filling! I added some spicy sausage for extra flavor. Will make again!
Wasn’t sure about chicken in a frittata, but wow! This is a game changer! Yummy!
I tried this recipe but it didn’t turn out right. The frittata was too watery. Maybe I added too much milk?
Not sure what went wrong, I made it and it was perfect! Maybe check the cooking time?
I think maybe the milk was too much! Try less next time, it should help.
Absolutely delicious! I love how the fried chicken adds a unique flavor to the frittata. Will definitely make again!
I totally agree! This sounds amazing! Can’t wait to try it myself!
Fried chicken in a frittata? Really? Sounds a bit weird to me. Not sure about that mix.
Can I swap chicken for turkey? Never tried fried chicken in eggs – sounds too weird!
Easy recipe but I’m not a big fan of bell peppers, maybe next time I’ll skip them. Still worth a try.
I get that! Bell peppers can be strong in flavor. You might try replacing them with some spinach or mushrooms instead. Good luck!
Frittata? More like failed taco! It’s all mushy. Near impossible to cook it just right.
I dont like bell peppers, so I omitted them. Taste is still vari good!
That’s cool! Bell peppers aren’t for everyone. I usually throw in some spinach instead. Yum!
This was good but I added too much salt by accident. Next time I’ll pay more attention!
Too much salt? That’s no biggie! Just use less next time! But honestly, who doesn’t like a bit of flavor, right?
Glad you liked it! Salt can be tricky. Just a pinch goes a long way. Next time, try tasting as you go!
Meh. It’s just eggs and chicken. What’s the big deal? I’ll stick to cereal.
I dunno… cereal is easy but this sounds kinda good too! Maybe I’ll give it a shot someday.
Honestly, it’s way more than just eggs and chicken! The peppers and cheese really take it up a notch. Give it a try!
Frittata? Sounds fancy! I just called it scrambled eggs with chicken haha. So good!
Haha, right? It’s basically just eggs with a twist! But frittata sounds fancier for sure!
Tried it and it turned out okay, but I think I prefer regular omelets.
My kids devoured this! They usually hate veggies, but the bell peppers were a hit. Thanks!
That’s awesome! My kids are picky too, but I’ll try it for sure!
Veggies are still veggies. I don’t get how kids can like peppers in eggs. Sounds weird to me!
How come y’all use fried chicken? Shouldn’t it be fresh chicken? Seems weird.
This was so good! My kids loved it. Easy to make too!
Glad to hear your kids loved it! It’s super easy and perfect for busy mornings.
This sounds kinda weird… frittata with fried chicken? I usually do just veggies or bacon.
Tastes awesome! Wouldn’t change anything. Perfect breakfast option!
