Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup cooked, diced ham
- 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken breast
- 1.5 cups shredded Swiss cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully press the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie or tart pan. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges and refrigerate the crust until ready to fill.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced ham, shredded chicken, and 1 cup of shredded Swiss cheese. Mix well and spread the mixture evenly in the prepared pie crust.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Ensure the custard mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the ham and chicken mixture in the crust, ensuring it fills all gaps.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the custard.
Place the quiche on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake the quiche for 40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. You may use a knife or toothpick to check if the center is firm and no liquid custard remains.
Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Quiche Cordon Bleu!
