Ingredients

6 large eggs

6 large fresh basil leaves, chopped

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 oz prosciutto, finely chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 lb medium zucchini (about 3), halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices

5 medium Swiss chard leaves, stems discarded and leaves finely chopped (1 1/2 cups)

12 scallions, trimmed and finely chopped

5 zucchini blossoms*

2 ozfinely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (1 cup)

Preparation

Step 1
Preheat broiler.
Step 2
Whisk together eggs, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Step 3
Cook prosciutto in oil in a 12-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until edges begin to crisp, about 2 minutes. Add zucchini and chard and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender, about 8 minutes. Add scallions and zucchini blossoms and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour egg mixture into skillet and cook, lifting up cooked egg around edge using a spatula to let as much raw egg as possible flow underneath, until edge is set, about 2 minutes (top and center will still be very loose). Sprinkle cheese evenly over top.
Step 4
Broil frittata about 6 inches from heat until set, slightly puffed, and golden, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
Step 5
Cool frittata 5 minutes, then loosen edge with a clean spatula and slide onto a large plate. Cut into wedges.
Step 6
