Steps:
- Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heating element. Melt butter in a 10-inch broilerproof nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add scallions and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in zucchini and cook until tender, 4 to 8 minutes. (This ensures that the vegetables are cooked and won't release extra moisture, which would make the frittata tough and watery.)
- Meanwhile, beat together eggs and milk with a fork (it gives you more speed and agility than a whisk here) until well combined. Stir in basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into skillet; cook over medium-high, stirring with a spatula to create large curds, until eggs are wet on top but otherwise set throughout, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with provolone, pressing about half down into eggs. Transfer to oven; broil until puffed and browning in spots and eggs are just set, 1 to 2 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Frittata can be served hot or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm zucchini: Look for zucchini that is deep green in color and free of blemishes. Avoid zucchini that is yellow or has soft spots.
- Grate the zucchini: Grating the zucchini helps it to cook evenly and makes it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
- Use a large skillet: A large skillet will help to prevent the frittata from sticking and will allow it to cook evenly.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat: Medium heat will help to prevent the frittata from burning and will allow it to cook through.
- Don't overcook the frittata: The frittata is done cooking when the eggs are set and the top is golden brown. Overcooking will make the frittata dry and tough.
- Serve the frittata immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later: The frittata can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the frittata in a warm oven before serving.
Conclusion:
Zucchini frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover zucchini and is a healthy and filling meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious zucchini frittata that the whole family will enjoy.
