Best 8 Sausage And Red Bell Pepper Quiche Recipes

ROASTED PEPPER, SCALLION AND SAUSAGE QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the 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.
• Make the filling: Combine the roasted peppers and scallions in a large bowl. Add the sausage and cheddar 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 parsley. Spread the vegetable-cheese mixture in the crust, then pour the egg mixture on top. Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚ and bake until the filling is set, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes before slicing.

RED PEPPER QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Fit the piecrust into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate according to the package directions; fold edges under and crimp. Prick bottom and sides of the pie crust with a fork.
• Line the pastry with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 7 minutes. Remove the weights and foil and bake until the bottom is golden brown, 3 to 4 more minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
• While the pie crust is cooking, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green onions and cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until tender. Stir in the ham and garlic and cook 1 minute longer until the garlic is fragrant. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk together the half-and-half, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, salt, pepper, whole eggs and egg white in a medium mixing bowl. Then add the roasted red peppers, oregano and basil.
• Sprinkle the Swiss cheese over the bottom of the pastry shell. Top with 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese and the ham mixture. Pour the egg mixture over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese.
• Bake until the center is set, 35 to 40 minutes, shielding the crust with aluminum foil, if necessary. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
• Tip: If your quiche isn't quite done but you're in a pinch to get it on the table, just stick it in the microwave for 60 seconds. This will help the eggs to set up.

CLASSIC SMOKED SAUSAGE & PEPPERS

QUICHE WITH RED PEPPERS AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt, the garlic, peppers and thyme. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes, then turn the heat to medium low and continue to cook for 5 to 10 minutes more, until peppers are very tender and sweet.
• Turn up heat to medium-high and, a handful at a time, add spinach and stir until each handful wilts. If there is liquid remaining in the pan turn up the heat and stir while you let it cook off. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. If you are making filling a day ahead, refrigerate uncovered.
• Beat together egg yolks and eggs in a medium bowl. Set tart pan on a baking sheet for easy handling. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in oven for 5 minutes.
• Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to the remaining eggs and whisk together.
• Spread pepper and spinach mixture in an even layer in the crust. Stir together cheeses and sprinkle in an even layer on top. Very slowly pour in the egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the shell, and you want to avoid the custard spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on the top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.
