Cheesy Rice and Zucchini Frittata image

To me, frittatas are a perfect taste and texture combination. They're practically up there with all the other great comfort food, but with a tiny bit less guilt. This dish is relatively simple to whip up and a very satisfying addition to a brunch, luncheon, or dinner menu.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray
5 small zucchini, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices
2 cups cooked basmati rice
¾ cup shredded Havarti cheese
¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup milk
4 large eggs, separated, divided
2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup panko bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a shallow 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine zucchini, cooked rice, Havarti, and Parmesan in a large bowl. Blend milk, egg yolks, Sriracha, salt, and pepper in a smaller bowl, then pour over the rice mixture and mix to combine.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold into the egg yolk-rice mixture. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Sprinkle panko across the top and continue to bake until browned and set, about 10 more minutes.
