Ingredients
- 10 large eggs
- 2 zucchini
- 1 yellow onions
- 3 oz grated parmesan cheese
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 oz fresh basil(optional)
Method
Heat the oven to 375F.
Slice the zucchini into thin coins and salt them lightly. Let them sit 5 minutes, then pat dry so the frittata does not turn watery.
Cook the sliced onion in the olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet for 5 minutes, then add the zucchini and cook 6 minutes more until tender and lightly browned.
Beat the eggs with the milk, most of the parmesan, salt, and pepper, and pour into the pan.
Cook undisturbed on the stove for 3 minutes until the edges set, then scatter the remaining parmesan and move to the oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
The center should be just firm. Rest 5 minutes, then cut into wedges and top with torn basil.
