Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 200 grams shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 150 grams crab meat, cooked and shredded
- 150 grams scallops, diced
- 1 piece onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 pieces eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess edges and crimp the crust for a decorative edge.
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the shrimp, crab meat, and diced scallops to the skillet. Cook until the seafood is just cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until well combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika into the egg mixture.
Spread the sautéed seafood mixture evenly over the prepared pie crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the seafood, ensuring it spreads evenly across the filling.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
