Ingredients
Scale
- 1 deep dish pie shell (16 oz)
- 1 cup diced chicken
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- ¼ cup sun dried tomatoes, diced
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill with dried beans. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Let cool and reduce the oven temperature to 350˚F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Roughly chop the spinach and spread it in the bottom of the pie crust. Layer the chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, green onions, and cheese over the spinach.
- Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients in the crust. Place the quiche on a baking sheet and bake for 45-55 minutes until the center is just set.
- Allow to sit for 20 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Ensure the pie crust is well-weighted with beans to avoid bubbling during pre-baking.
Letting the quiche sit before serving helps enhance the flavors.
Experiment with additional vegetables for personalized flavor.
