Chicken Broccoli Quiche image

This recipe was born by surveying the contents of the fridge and trying to turn the contents of several plastic containers into something delicious. This is a great use for leftover rice and can be made with any combination of leftover meats and vegetables you like. We've tried it with ham, bacon and crab meat. We also like adding peppers, black olives and tomatoes.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups cooked rice
1/2 cups cottage cheese
1 egg white (reserve yolk for filling)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves
Butter, for greasing
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 sliced mushrooms
1 cup cooked broccoli florets
1 cup cooked chicken (preferably dark meat), diced
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 eggs plus the reserved yolk
1/2 cup milk
1 cup grated Cheddar

Steps:

  • To make the Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the ingredients and press into a buttered 9-inch pie pan. Spread the mixture evenly on bottom and sides of the pan and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven set aside and raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • To make the Filling: Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring, until lightly browned. Add the broccoli, chicken, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning, as desired.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add the vegetable mixture and cheese and mix well. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and bake until just set around the edges but slightly loose in the center, about 30 to 40 minutes. Let the filling set and cool before serving.

This quiche was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I'm not a fan of quiche, but I thought this one was pretty good. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and flavorful.

This quiche was delicious, but it was a lot of work to make. I think I would only make it again for a special occasion.

This quiche was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my quiche didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The crust was soggy and the filling was runny.

This quiche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more seasoning to the filling next time.

I'm not a big fan of quiche, but I really enjoyed this one. The chicken and broccoli were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted and bubbly.

This quiche was delicious! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still turned out great.

This quiche was a hit with my family! The chicken and broccoli were tender and flavorful, and the cheese was melted and gooey. The crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
