Servings 4 servings
Calories 210kcal

Ingredients

  • 3 large chicken eggs
  • 3 egg whites large
  • ¼ cup grated parmigiano reggiano
  • 2 tsp tarragon dried
  • 3 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 onion medium
  • 1 zucchini medium
  • 1 red pepper medium

Instructions

  • Combine the eggs, egg whites, cheese, tarragon, salt, and pepper in a large bowl, and whisk to blend.
  • Set aside while you prepare the vegetables.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, oven safe skillet over medium high heat.
  • When hot, add in the diced vegetables and cook, stirring for 5-7 minutes, or until just tender, with golden brown edges.
  • Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Remove the vegetables and set aside in a bowl.
  • Heat the broiler.
  • Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and turn the heat down to medium-low.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.
  • When the pan is hot, pour in the egg mixture and cook for about a minute, then gently spoon the vegetables over the eggs (do not mix them in).
  • Continue cooking until the edges have set.
  • Lift the frittata gently to see that the bottom has browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Put the skillet under the broiler for 2 minutes, or until the top is set and lightly browned.
  • Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  • Let the frittata cool for a few minutes.
  • Then slide it onto a serving plate, cut into wedges, and serve.
