This hefty frittata is cooked entirely on the grill—from the vegetables to the eggs themselves. While it's ok to cook the frittata over direct heat, you want to make sure the grill isn't so hot that the bottom burns before the center is set. Ideally, you should grill the frittata over moderate heat--when you can hold your hand 4 to 5 inches from the grill for 4 to 5 seconds.

Note:

Alternatively, you can cook this frittata in a 350°F oven. Start the egg mixture on a stovetop over medium heat until edges have set, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to oven and bake until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
