Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup 60ml milk (whole milk or your preferred type)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small red onion (finely sliced)
- 1 cup 150g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup 150g zucchini, diced
- 1/2 cup 75g bell peppers, diced (any color)
- 1/2 cup 75g Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
- 1/2 cup 75g crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup 10g fresh parsley or dill, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
- Cook the Vegetables: Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and sauté for 2–3 minutes until softened. Add the cherry tomatoes, zucchini, and bell peppers, cooking for another 4–5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften but still hold their shape. Stir in the Kalamata olives.
- Assemble the Frittata: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top. Reduce the heat to low and let the frittata cook on the stovetop for 5–7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- Finish in the Oven: Preheat your oven’s broiler. Place the skillet under the broiler for 3–5 minutes, or until the top of the frittata is golden and fully set.
- Serve: Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill for added flavor and presentation. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based milk and skip the feta cheese.
- Make ahead: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Serving ideas: Pair with Greek salad, warm pita bread, or tzatziki sauce for a complete Mediterranean meal.
