Best 5 Simply Elegant Artichoke Quiche Recipes

SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE QUICHE

Steps:

• Put a baking sheet in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, 3/4 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach, artichoke hearts and 2 pinches salt. Cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted and the skillet is dry, about 1 minute. Remove the vegetables to a plate lined with a few layers of paper towels; let cool slightly. Carefully pull up the sides of the paper towels and squeeze out most of the liquid; stir the vegetables into the egg mixture.
• Scatter the goat cheese in the bottom of the pie crust. Pour in the egg mixture, then arrange the tomatoes cut-side up in the eggs. Season with pepper. Carefully place the quiche on the hot baking sheet and bake until set, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a medium bowl; whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil until smooth. When the quiche is almost done, add the salad mix to the bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut the quiche into wedges and serve with the salad.

ARTICHOKE AND FETA QUICHE

Steps:

• Pulse together the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add about a third of the chilled butter cubes and process until the butter is absorbed. Add the remaining butter and pulse until the butter is the size of peas. Pulse in the vinegar. Then add the ice water, pulsing quickly a few times to combine. Squeeze some dough between your fingers--it should just hold its shape without feeling wet. If it is crumbly, add more ice water a tablespoon at a time. (Pulse quickly, do not overwork or the dough will be tough.0 Wrap the dough loosely in a large piece of plastic wrap, then firmly press and flatten the dough into a thin round. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Lightly flour a work surface, then roll the dough into an 11- to 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Center the dough in a 9-inch pie plate, with an even overhang all around. Fold the edges and flute or crimp. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Press a piece of foil over the chilled crust, then fill with pie weights, raw beans or rice. Bake to set the crust, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and bake until the crust is light brown, 5 to 10 minutes more. Let cool slightly before adding the filling.
• Sprinkle the shallots evenly into the crust. Combine the artichoke hearts with the feta and sprinkle it in an even layer over the shallots.
• Whisk together the half-and-half, parsley, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
• Pour the custard over the filling. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until set, 35 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.
