Broccoli and Red Onion Quiche image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Store-bought or Homemade Pie Dough, recipe follows
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped roasted or steamed broccoli
1/4 to 1/2 cup sauteed sliced red onions
3/4 to 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
3 large eggs
1 1/4 cups heavy cream, half-and-half or milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped chives
1/2 teaspoon paprika or chile powder, or some grated lemon zest (optional)
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, diced and chilled
4 teaspoons apple cider vinegar or white vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with pie dough and crimp as desired; chill 30 minutes. Line with foil, then fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the crust is set, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue baking until lightly golden, 5 to 10 more minutes. Let cool while you prepare the filling.
  • Put the broccoli and red onions in a large bowl. Add the pepper jack and toss to combine.
  • Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the chives. Add the and paprika, chile powder or lemon zest, if desired. Spread the vegetable-cheese mixture in the crust, then pour the egg mixture on top. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until the filling is set, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Pulse the flour, salt and sugar in a food processor. Add about one-third of the butter; process until the butter is combined. Pulse in the remaining butter in 5 or 6 pulses to form coarse crumbs. Add the vinegar; pulse quickly a few times while adding 1/3 cup ice water. Squeeze some dough between your fingers. It should just hold its shape; if it's still crumbly, quickly pulse in more ice water by the tablespoonful. (Do not overwork the dough.)
  • Turn the dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Wrap the dough, then press and flatten into a thin round. Refrigerate 1 hour.
  • Roll out the dough into an 11-to-12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick, on a lightly floured surface. Center over a 9-inch pie plate. Fold in the edges and crimp as desired. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before using.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, weekday, main course

Time 10m

Yield Two quesadillas

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large broccoli crown, about 1/2 pound
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium red onion, cut in half lengthwise, then sliced across the grain
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro or epazote (optional)
Salt
freshly ground pepper
4 corn tortillas
2 ounces grated Monterey Jack, Cheddar or mixed cheeses (1/2 cup)
Salsa for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the broccoli filling. Steam the broccoli crown for four minutes, then remove from the heat. Rinse with cold water and pat dry. Slice 1/4 inch thick. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy frying pan, and add the red onion. Cook, stirring, until tender and seared on the edges. Add the sliced broccoli. Cook, stirring, until seared on the edges, about three minutes. Stir in the cilantro or epazote, season with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • In a microwave: Place a corn tortilla on a plate. Top with half the broccoli and onions, and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle on half the cheese, and top with another tortilla. Press down gently, then microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until the cheese has melted. Remove from the microwave, cut into quarters or sixths, and serve. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • In a pan: Place a corn tortilla in a pan. Top with half the broccoli and onions, and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle on half the cheese. Turn the heat on medium-high, and heat until the cheese begins to melt and the tortilla begins to brown. Place another tortilla on top of the cheese, and press down lightly. Flip over the quesadilla in the pan, and heat for about 30 seconds or until the cheese has melted. Flip back over, and remove to a plate. Cut into quarters or sixths, and serve. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, vibrant broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you make clean, even cuts and prevent the broccoli from becoming mushy.
  • Blanch the broccoli: Blanching the broccoli in boiling water for a few minutes will help preserve its vibrant color and crisp texture.
  • Cook the broccoli until it is tender-crisp: Broccoli should be cooked until it is just tender but still has a slight crunch to it.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately: Broccoli is best served immediately after it is cooked.
