This recipe really needs a flavor infusion -- it's more like a start of a recipe, meant to be personalized, than a completed dish. Frittata's are nice and easy, so I'll probably make it again -- but will try chicken thighs instead of breasts, add gobs more seasoning, and perhaps some grated Pecorino.

seriously, this was so good. i didn't find it bland at all. i did put in extra red peppers than it called for, but either way, i loved it. and it tasted better the next day.

I read a lot of reviews that said this recipe was bland so I decided that when I made it, I would change it up a bit. Instead of plain chicken, I used Purdue Italian style chicken breasts, used natural greek yogurt instead of creme fraiche and added a cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese. I also shredded some parmesan cheese over the top and added quite a bit of salt and pepper. In a word - AMAZING! It was absolutely delicious. Worth a try!!

We agree with the others, chicken and eggs shouldn't be put together in any Frittatas! Tasted very bland and dry. Ham and asparagus would have tasted better with some stronger cheese choices.
I agree with some of the other reviews, won't be making it again.
Very disappointed.

I made this recipe to have something to snack on for lunches over the weekend. While it's filling and satisfying, I found it to be a bit dry and not as flavorful as I expected. We wound up putting a dollop of sour cream on top of each serving, and that seemed to perk it up a bit.
Next time I make this, I intend to experiment with some bolder cheeses and add a few spices as well.

Chickens and eggs may start off in the food chain together, but mixing them together to eat, like others have commented, is just not appetizing to me. I used a very lean Italian sausage in place of chicken and used whole wheat orzo. The large Israeli couscous works well with this too. I like quick, all-in-one light meals like this when you need something to serve that doesn't take too much effort. This can be made ahead of time too, so for that reason, I used this recipe as an inspiration for my substitutions. I can see chopped sun-dried tomatoes and some melting cheese in this as well.

I thought this tasted good and was easy to make. I did have to cook it longer than 25 minutes though. I also added some left over chicken that had a dijon honey mustard glaze on it. I thought the mustard added a good flavor to the dish. I will make this again.

We are also Lacto-Ovo, like Carol below. I use Trader Joe's veggie Italian Sausage which I saute and chop beore mixing in. I have made this several times now and the whole family enjoys it.

This makes an interesting conversation piece for a luncheon when your asked to bring a dish and everyone shows up with Quiche!
It has flavor, texture, and presents well.

Great recipe for leftover chicken and veggies. I was out of ricotta so I subsituted 1/3 of a cup of whole milk instead. I added a couple of extra scallions because I was out of roasted red peppers. The recipe turns out just as good without the ricotta. If I hadn't of told anyone they never would have noticed.
