Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 2 cups Baby spinach, chopped
- 1.5 cups Asiago cheese, grated
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter and press the pre-made pie crust into the dish. Trim any excess overhang and set aside.
In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chopped baby spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Spread the shredded chicken evenly across the bottom of the pie crust. Layer the sautéed spinach on top of the chicken.
Sprinkle the grated Asiago cheese evenly over the spinach and chicken layers.
Pour the egg mixture over the fillings, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any overflow. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
