Steps

Heat olive oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add minced garlic, chopped onion, and diced bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
In a bowl, beat the egg with soy sauce, salt, and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the egg is set.
Using a spatula, carefully loosen the edges and slide the frittata onto a plate.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Tips for Italian Veggie Frittata with Soy Garlic Glaze

A properly set frittata looks matte on top and has no loose egg in the center; a wet center needs a little more gentle cooking.
Keep the garlic from browning during the vegetable sauté; browned garlic can taste bitter in this small portion.
A small non-stick skillet helps the single egg cook evenly and release cleanly; use a thin spatula to check the edges.
