Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.

2. In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, mint, salt, pepper and cayenne. Set aside.

3. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a skillet. Add onion to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until softened, but not browned – about five to eight minutes.

4. Add garlic and shrimp and cook for one minute.

5. Reduce the heat to medium, then add the arugula and cook for a minute or two until it wilts and the shrimp turns pink.

6. Spread the arugula and shrimp mixture into a greased pie plate to make an even layer.

7. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the plate and spread the egg mixture evenly.

8. Cook 25-30 minutes.

9. Remove from heat, then scatter the goat cheese evenly over the frittata.

10. Turn the oven on to the broil setting and heat the frittata for two to three minutes until the cheese is melted.

11. Cut into wedges and serve.
