Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Cook and stir bacon in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat until evenly browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain all but 1 teaspoon bacon grease from the skillet.
Step 2
Stir potato slices, water, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper into bacon; cover the skillet with a lid and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Mix Swiss chard into potato mixture; cook and stir until chard is slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Pour eggs over potato-chard mixture, stir gently, and remove skillet from heat. Top egg mixture with Parmesan cheese.
Step 5
Broil in the preheated oven until eggs are set and frittata is golden brown around the edges, 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 6
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
