Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 8 ounces Medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup Small potatoes, cooked and diced
- 1 cup Green beans, trimmed and blanched
- 0.5 cup Black olives, pitted and sliced
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Gruyere cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges as desired. Prick the bottom with a fork and set aside.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until just pink and cooked through. Remove and let cool slightly, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Layer the diced potatoes, blanched green beans, cooked shrimp, sliced black olives, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded Gruyere cheese evenly over the prepared pie crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the fillings, ensuring it spreads evenly to cover all ingredients.
Place the quiche on the center rack of the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before slicing and serving.
