Bel Gioioso Recipe ⊶ Fresh Mozzarella Frittata

This red onion and zucchini frittata is topped with fresh mozzarella cheese pearls and sun-dried tomatoes and finished under the broiler.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 ½ cups thinly sliced red onion
• 1 ½ cups chopped zucchini
• 7 large eggs, beaten
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 4 ounces BelGioioso Fresh Mozzarella Pearls cheese
• 3 tablespoons chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
• ¼ cup fresh basil, julienned

Cooking Directions

1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
2. Heat oil in a large broiler-safe nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and zucchini and cook, stirring frequently until soft, about 5 minutes.
3. In a bowl, whisk eggs, salt and pepper together. Pour over the vegetables in the pan. Cook about 2 minutes until nearly set. While cooking lift the edges to allow uncooked egg from the middle to go underneath. Top with Fresh Mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes, place under broiler until the eggs are slightly browned, about 2 minutes. Let stand for 3 minutes. Top with basil. Slice and serve.
