Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 4 ounces canned diced green chiles (drained)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon butter (for greasing the dish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or similar-sized baking dish with the butter to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth and well combined.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, diced green chiles, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder into the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Pour the mixture evenly into the greased pie dish.
Place the pie dish on the center rack of the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and the top is lightly golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Cut into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
