Categories     Savory Pies

Time 1h

Yield 1 quiche, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
1 frozen 9-inch deep dish pie shell
2 cups seafood or 2 cups poultry

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit.
  • Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add filling and milk and mix well.
  • Pour mixture into frozen pie crust.
  • Place quiche on cookie sheet and bake on the middle oven rack for 45-50 minutes, or until top is browned and a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Serve with a crisp green salad or maybe some fresh fruit on the side.

Tips:

  • For a creamy quiche, use heavy cream or whole milk. For a lighter quiche, use low-fat milk or skim milk.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Use plenty of fresh herbs and vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the quiche. The center should be slightly jiggly when you take it out of the oven.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature. It can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
  • Add a layer of cooked vegetables to the bottom of the quiche crust before adding the egg mixture. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • If you are using a frozen pie crust, be sure to thaw it completely before filling it. A frozen crust will make the quiche soggy.

Conclusion:

Quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many different variations, there is sure to be a quiche recipe that everyone will enjoy.
