Prep the Ingredients:
Start by washing and slicing the zucchinis and dicing the onion. If using fresh herbs, chop them finely.
Beat the Eggs:
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until they are well blended. Add in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Cook the Vegetables:
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until it’s translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the sliced zucchinis and a pinch of salt. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly golden. Stir occasionally.
Combine and Cook:
Pour the egg mixture over the cooked vegetables in the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes until the edges start to set.
While the edges are cooking, preheat your oven broiler.
Broil the Frittata:
Once the edges are set, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Broil for 5-7 minutes until the top is puffed and lightly golden.
Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Serve:
Remove the skillet from the oven (be careful, it will be hot!). Let the frittata sit for about 5 minutes. Cut it into wedges and serve warm, or at room temperature.
