Caramelized Onion and Zucchini Frittata

 10 eggs
 Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
 3 tbsp Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil
 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
 2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch half-moons
 6 Colavita Sun-dried Tomatoes, thinly sliced
 ½ cup parmigiano-reggiano, shredded
 10 basil leaves, coarsely chopped
1

Heat the oven to 425°F.

2

In a large bowl, beat the eggs and season with 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper.

3

Heat the oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, sprinkle with ½ tsp. salt, reduce the heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and browns in places, about 10 minutes.

4

Add the zucchini and sun-dried tomatoes. Raise the heat to medium high, and cook, stirring, until the zucchini softens, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, Parmigiano, and basil, and cook, moving the eggs and vegetables around the pan, until the egg starts to set, about 2 minutes.

5

Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the eggs brown and become firm to the touch, about 10 minutes.

6

Cut into wedges and serve. Season to taste with salt.
