This easy Keto Chorizo Frittata will take your egg game to a new level. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner – or make ahead for lunches – it sneaks in some broccoli for added greens.
For those that don’t like broccoli, give this Keto Chorizo Frittata a go. After steaming the broccoli, it gets tossed with the chorizo and olive oil to soak up all the delicious flavours.
I like to sprinkle this with parmesan and let it sit, then flip it upside down to serve with the crunchy golden side up. Being a pretty complete meal on its own, I find it best served with some simple green salad leaves.
Keto Chorizo Frittata with Broccoli
Using an oven proof frying pan makes this simple frittata a one dish wonder, ready in 25 minutes.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the grill to maximum heat.
-
Whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, cream and paprika.
-
Cut the broccoli into small florets and steam in the microwave for 2 - 3 minutes until just tender.
-
In a deep oven proof frying pan, add one tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Dice the chorizo and add to the hot oil. Fry until golden and crispy.
-
Add the steamed broccoli and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss through until the broccoli has absorbed all of the oil.
-
Turn the heat to low and add the egg mixture, ensuring it works its way around all of the broccoli. Cook on low for 10 - 12 minutes until almost set.
-
Top with parmesan cheese and put under the grill for 2- 3 minutes, watching closely, until golden.

Just wondering if you have an dairy free alternative/substitution for the cream?
Hi Rebecca, in this particular recipe you could leave out the cream, use a light flavoured coconut cream or buy a lactose free cream.
Hi there with the chorizo fritatta could this go in the oven to cook in a tin I don’t have a fry pan that goes in the oven. Thankyou Meagan
Love all you recipes btw. Thankyou.
Yes no problem at all!
Hi, new to keto. the cream for this recipe (and others) it is your standard thickened cream? or is there a specific keto friendly version I should be looking for?
thanks!
Hi Gabrielle! Just standard thickened cream is fine.
Hi Rachel,
Can’t wait to try this recipe! However, I’m American and don’t know what you mean when you refer to a grill. Is that the same as an oven broiler here in the states? Thanks very much!
Hi Meredith, yes it’s the same as your broiler 🙂
Awesome dish, I learned more information from your website, Thank You.
Hi there,
Just wondering how many grams a serving is ? Thanks
Hey Simon, I haven’t measured the final weight as the serving just divides it equally into 4 pieces. Very rough calculations in my head would be around 800 grams total, so 200 grams per serve.
@Rachel,
Hi Rachel,
