Chicken and asparagus quiche image

This quick and easy quiche is a tasty way of using up leftover roast chicken - and it makes great picnic food too!

Provided by James Martin

Categories     Main course

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 11

butter, for greasing
flour, for dusting
300g/10½oz ready-made shortcrust pastry
9 free-range eggs, 1 beaten for the glaze
600ml/20fl oz double cream
100g/3½oz asparagus
300g/10½fl oz cooked leftover roast chicken, cut into 3cm/1¼in chunks
1 tbsp chopped fresh marjoram
100g/3½oz vintage Comté cheese, finely grated
1 bag green salad leaves, to serve
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Grease a 23cm/9in (4cm/2in deep) loose-bottomed tart tin with butter. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured work surface to a thickness of 5mm/¼in. Wrap the pastry around your rolling pin and gently lower it into the prepared tin, pressing the pastry gently into the base and sides.
  • Cover the pastry case with cling film or baking parchment, then fill with baking beans, uncooked rice or flour. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove the lining paper and baking beads.
  • Brush the inside of the tart all over with the beaten egg. Return the pastry case to the oven for a further 5 minutes, or until golden-brown. Remove the pastry case from the oven.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4.
  • In a bowl, whisk 8 eggs and the cream together, then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Arrange the asparagus spears inside the tart case, then sprinkle over the chicken pieces and marjoram. Pour over the egg and cream mixture until almost level with the top of the pastry case. Scatter the Comté on top.
  • Bake the quiche for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling has set and the pastry is golden-brown. Remove from the oven and set aside on a wire rack to cool slightly.
  • To serve, cut the quiche into slices and serve with the salad leaves.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 asparagus spears
1 recipe pie pastry (1-crust)
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives or 2 tablespoons green onion tops
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon flour
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup chopped cooked chicken or 1/2 cup turkey
4 slices crisp-cooked bacon, crumbled
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, chopped
1/4-1/2 cup ice water

Steps:

  • For the Quiche, break off the woody ends of the asparagus spears; the spears should be approximately 4 ½ inches long. Cook the asparagus in boiling water in a saucepan for 5 minutes; drain.
  • Prepare the pastry, adding the chives or green onion tops with the flour and salt. Roll the dough into a 13-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Fit the pastry into a 10-inch quiche dish; trim the edge. Line the bottom with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450 degrees for 8 minutes; discard the foil. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes longer or until set and dry. Remove from oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees.
  • Toss the cheese and flour in a bowl. Sprinkle over the hot pastry. Combine the eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix well. Stir in the chicken and bacon.
  • Pour over the cheese mixture. Arrange the asparagus in a spoke or fan pattern over the top. Bake at 325 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
  • For the pastry, combine the flour, salt and sugar in a food processor. Add the butter gradually, processing constantly for 10 seconds or until crumbly. Add the ice water ½ teaspoons at a time, processing constantly until the dough forms a ball. Chill, covered with plastic wrap, for 1 hour.
  • Roll the dough 1/8 inch thick between sheets of waxed paper. Cut the dough to fit twelve 2 to 3 inch tartlet cups. Fit the dough over the bottoms and up the sides of the cups. The pastry recipe makes enough pastry for two 8 to 10 inch tart or pie shells or one 2 crust pie.

ASPARAGUS QUICHE



Asparagus Quiche image

There's nothing I like better than getting all my housework done and "cooking up a storm" in the kitchen. I was raised in a farming community that had many asparagus growers. So I've always made sure that there's an ample supply of asparagus in my freezer! My husband is a grain farmer, and we have four grown children and 13 grandchildren.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION QUICHE



Roasted Asparagus and Scallion Quiche image

I've made many a spring quiche filled with asparagus and herbs, yet I'd never thought about roasting the asparagus instead of steaming it. But lately I've been buying thick stalks of asparagus, and all I want to do is roast it; roasting intensifies the flavor and the stalks become incredibly succulent, more so than when the asparagus is steamed. This quality isn't lost even when the sliced stalks are hidden inside a quiche.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound thick asparagus
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 bunch good-size scallions (the kind you get in the farmers market) or 1 1/2 bunches thin scallions (the kind you get in the supermarket) (about 5 ounces), trimmed, quartered lengthwise and sliced thin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
2 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
1 (9-inch) whole wheat pie crust, fully baked and cooled
Freshly ground pepper
2/3 cup milk
2 ounces Gruyère, grated (1/2 cup)
1 ounce Parmesan, grated (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Break off and discard woody ends of asparagus and place asparagus on the baking sheet. Drizzle on 1 tablespoon of the oil, add salt and pepper to taste and toss together with your hands until asparagus is thoroughly coated with oil. Place in oven and roast 12 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned in spots, turning asparagus halfway through. Remove asparagus from the oven and allow to cool until you can handle it. Slice into 1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces and place in a medium bowl.
  • Turn oven down to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat and add scallions. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Transfer to bowl with asparagus. Add tarragon and parsley and toss together.
  • Beat together egg yolks and eggs in a medium bowl. Set tart pan on a baking sheet to allow for easy handling. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in oven for 5 minutes.
  • Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to remaining eggs and whisk together.
  • Spread scallion and asparagus mixture in an even layer in the crust. Stir together cheeses and sprinkle evenly on top. Very slowly pour in egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the shell, and you want to keep the custard from spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on the top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

Provided by Michele O'Sullivan

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Eggs     Quiche

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
10 slices bacon
2 (8 inch) unbaked pie shells
1 egg white, lightly beaten
4 large eggs eggs
1 ½ cups half-and-half cream
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and cool.
  • Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
  • Brush pie shells with beaten egg white. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and chopped asparagus into pie shells.
  • In a bowl, beat together eggs, cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Sprinkle Swiss cheese over bacon and asparagus. Pour egg mixture on top of cheese.

Tips:

  • Use fresh asparagus. Fresh asparagus is more flavorful and tender than canned or frozen asparagus. If you don't have fresh asparagus, you can use frozen asparagus, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Cook the asparagus properly. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked asparagus is mushy and flavorless.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the quiche tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the quiche until it is set. The quiche is done baking when the center is set and the top is golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of the quiche should come out clean.

Conclusion:

Asparagus chicken quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken and asparagus, and it's also a good source of protein and vegetables. Serve it with a side salad or soup for a complete meal.
