Ingredients
Scale
- 1 deep dish pie shell (16 oz)
- 1 cup diced chicken
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, diced
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ËšF. Line the pie crust with parchment paper, fill it with dried beans, and pre-bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Remove it from the oven and allow it to cool. Lower the oven temperature to 350ËšF.
- In a bowl, combine eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until fully blended.
- Chop the spinach and place it in the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust. Layer chicken, sun dried tomatoes, green onions, and cheeses over the spinach.
- Pour the egg mixture over the top of the layered ingredients. Set the quiche on a baking sheet and bake for 45-55 minutes or until the center is barely set.
- Allow the quiche to cool for 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Allow the crust to cool completely before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
Ensure the egg mixture is well-combined for a smoother texture in the quiche.
Experiment with additional ingredients like bell peppers or herbs for added flavor.
