ALMOND CHICKEN

Love one dish meals! This has lots of veggies and chicken. If you have everything lined up and ready to go in the wok, this comes together quickly. If you don't have a wok, you can use a really hot Dutch oven. I don't usually serve it over rice to save carbs, but I'm sure you can.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This includes using fresh chicken, vegetables, and herbs.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the key ingredients in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese are both good options.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can make the quiche tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the quiche in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the quiche cooks evenly.
  • Let the quiche cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the quiche from falling apart when you cut it.
