Categories     Breakfast     Brunch

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

refrigerated Dough for 1 (9-inch pie crust)
7 large eggs (beaten)
2/3 cup skim milk
2 cups diced cooked chicken or turkey breast (chopped 1/2 inch pieces)
1 cup chopped baby spinach
1/3 cup part skim Swiss cheese (or cheese of your choice)
4 ounces mushrooms (chopped 1/2 inch pieces)
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
  • Roll the dough out on a well-floured work surface until it's approximately 12-inches in diameter. Transfer it to a 9-inch glass deep pie dish.
  • Using your fingers, press it firmly into the bottom and sides of the pie plate. Then fold/crimp the overhanging dough. Prick the bottom and sides of the pie crust all over with the tines of a fork to prevent the crust from bubbling.
  • Transfer the pie crust to a cookie sheet and your pre-heated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until par-baked.
  • Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl lightly beat the eggs with milk, add the remaining ingredients and pour into the par-baked pie crust.
  • Place quiche on cookie sheet, cover the edges of the exposed crust with foil to prevent browning too much and bake on the middle oven rack until the eggs are set and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, for 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Let cool before serving.
  • Serve with a crisp green salad or maybe some fresh fruit on the side.

Here's what you need: chicken sausage, onion, mushroom, fresh spinach, salt, black pepper, eggs, milk, premade pie crust, parmesan cheese

Provided by Jordan Kenna

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ lb chicken sausage
½ cup onion, chopped
½ cup mushroom, chopped
4 oz fresh spinach, chopped
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
6 eggs
1 cup milk
1 premade pie crust, thawed

  • Add chopped spinach and cook until wilted and no extra liquid has accumulated in the bottom of the pan.
  • NOTE: Do your best to use the excessive moisture of the spinach and mushrooms to deglaze the bottom of the pan, scraping away any browned bits from cooking the sausage earlier.
  • Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Once cooked, remove the spinach and mushroom mixture from the pan and combine it with the reserved cooked sausage. Stir to mix evenly.
  • Combine eggs and milk. Lightly whisk until just combined.
  • Add sausage and spinach mixture to the bottom of a prepared 9-inch (23cm) pie crust, making sure to spread it evenly.
  • Pour in beaten eggs to fill the rest of the pie crust and top with a generous sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
  • Bake at 350˚F (180˚C) for 25 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

SPINACH QUICHE WITH CHICKEN



Spinach Quiche with Chicken image

Quiche works very well. Add seasonings of your family's choice for more variety. Use ham, bacon, or whatever protein. This quiche needs flavor boosters, so use your spice cabinet. Easily make this a Tex-Mex dish with diced green chiles and a touch of cumin. You could also add crumbled freshly cooked bacon to add more flavor. I served this with sliced avocado and tomatoes for a perfect light dinner.

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (9 inch) pie shells, unbaked
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 dash ground nutmeg
3/4 cup chicken, chopped (previously cooked)
1 1/2 cups swiss cheese, grated (or cheddar, Monterey Jack or Havarti)
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • Prepare pastry shell.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a bowl stir together eggs, milk, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  • Add chicken.
  • Combine grated cheese and flour; add to egg mixture.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your quiche a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include broccoli, spinach, mushrooms, zucchini, and bell peppers.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. They should be tender but still have a bit of crunch. Blanch the vegetables before adding them to the quiche if you want to make sure they're cooked evenly.
  • Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your quiche. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère are both good choices.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs will make your quiche tough. Just whisk them until they are well combined.
  • Bake the quiche until it is set. The quiche is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 45 minutes.

Conclusion:

A chicken vegetable quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken and vegetables. With a few simple tips, you can make a quiche that is sure to impress your friends and family.
