SKILLET CROOKNECK SQUASH AND ONIONS

We. Love. Squash. Simple, with only 3 other ingredients, besides salt and pepper, this recipe sets off the delicious, slightly sweet flavor of crookneck or summer squash. Mom used to stew squash, but this vegetable releases a lot of water when it cooks, so I don't add any water. The long, slow cooking helps to release the natural sugars in the onion and the squash. You can add additional herbs or seasonings, if you like, or cook it for less time to make it firmer, but this is how we do it. Just squash.

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to the high broil setting. Set a rack in the oven 3 to 4-inches from the broiler.
  • In a medium bowl toss the sliced squash with the oil, rosemary, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Lay the squash in a single layer on a cooling rack set inside a foil lined half sheet pan. Broil until the squash is golden brown on 1 side, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Whisk the eggs, ricotta, and Parmesan together in a medium mixing bowl. Put the squash in a 10-inch nonstick, oven-safe saute pan set over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir with a silicone spatula to make sure egg gets under the squash. Cook without stirring until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set on top, about 4 to 5 minutes. Put the pan under the broiler until lightly browned and puffy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Loosen the frittata from the pan by moving a rubber spatula around the edges. Slide the frittata onto a plate or other serving dish, and cut into 6 servings. Serve warm or at room temperature.

1 pound small yellow crookneck, trimmed and cut into 1/8-inch thick slices
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1/2-ounce grated Parmesan
