Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 zucchini, very thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
- salt and pepper
- 8 large eggs
- ⅓ cup milk (preferably whole or 2% milk)
- 6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided use
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- Optional garnish: fresh parsley or dill
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Heat the oil in a medium ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to soften, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and corn and cook another 3-4 minutes until tender. Season the vegetables with ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, 4 tablespoons parmesan, cayenne, ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Pour the mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Cook for a few minutes until the edges start to set. As it cooks, gently push the edges towards the middle with a spatula allowing the liquid to come into contact with the bottom of the skillet.
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons cheese over the top of the eggs and place the skillet in the oven. Bake 12-15 minutes until the frittata is cooked and puffed up. For a golden color, turn the broiler on and cook another 2-3 minutes until the top is golden brown. Garnish with herbs and serve.
Notes
- cast iron skillet
- Make sure you use an oven-safe skillet. I typically use a cast iron skillet.
- Any leftover frittata is perfect to make sandwiches the next day.
- Although this recipe uses zucchini and corn, you can use whatever vegetables, meat, and herbs you have in your refrigerator.
