Time 1h

Yield 6 servings (2/3 cup sauce).

Number Of Ingredients 17

Pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches)
1 can (6 ounces) crabmeat, drained, flaked and cartilage removed
1 cup shredded cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese
3/4 cup frozen asparagus stir-fry vegetable blend, thawed
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
3 large eggs
1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon seafood seasoning
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
SAUCE:
3 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup butter, melted
Dash pepper

Steps:

  • Roll out pastry to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Transfer pastry to pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 in. beyond edge of plate; flute edges. Line unpricked pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Place on a wire rack., In a small bowl, combine the crab, cheese, vegetable blend and onion; transfer to crust. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, seafood seasoning and pepper sauce. Pour over crab mixture., Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting., In a double boiler or metal bowl over simmering water, constantly whisk the egg yolks, water and lemon juice until mixture reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Reduce heat to low. Slowly drizzle in warm melted butter, whisking constantly. Whisk in pepper. Serve immediately with quiche.

I'm allergic to crab, so I substituted shrimp. It was still delicious!

The crab quiche was good, but the hollandaise sauce was a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some lemon juice or cayenne pepper next time.
