Ingredients

6 servings

  • 10 large eggs
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 6 strips bacon, chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups thinly sliced zucchini
  • 1 cup corn, fresh or frozen and thawed
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • fresh parsley, for garnish, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of salt, and the ricotta.
  • Heat a 12-inch (30 cm) cast-iron or stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, 3–5 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the bacon from the pan to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the rendered bacon fat in the pan.
  • Add the onion to the pan and cook until caramelized, 8–10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the zucchini and sauté until starting to soften, 2–3 minutes.
  • Add the corn and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini softens further but is still bright green. Season with the remaining teaspoon of salt and the black pepper.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the pan over the vegetables, then top with the crispy bacon.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, until the top is puffed and the eggs are cooked through.
  • Garnish with parsley, then serve directly from the skillet.
  • Enjoy!
