A delicious Zucchini & Onion Frittata made with fresh vegetables, fluffy eggs, and a touch of herbs. This easy-to-make dish is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dinner.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Zucchini: 2 medium-sized zucchinis, sliced
  • Onion: 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • Eggs: 6 large eggs
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh Herbs: 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh basil or parsley
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black Pepper: 1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), and ensure your frying pan is oven-safe.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and zucchini, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed vegetables in the pan. Stir gently to combine, then let it cook for about 3 minutes.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the eggs are set.
  6. Finishing Touches: For a crispy top, place the pan under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until golden and slightly bubbly.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs.

Notes

  • For a cheesy twist, add shredded mozzarella or crumbled feta to the eggs before cooking.
  • This frittata can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra flavor.
