Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
7 large eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream, or milk
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh chives, plus whole chives for garnish
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 teaspoon coarsely chopped fresh thyme
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh marjoram
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 small zucchini, cut crosswise into thin rounds

Steps:

  • Heat butter with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until melted.
