How to cook Quiche with chicken

Step 1

Peel and chop the onion. Cut the bacon into 1 cm cubes. Cut the chicken fillet into 1.5 cm cubes. Put the bacon in a pan, put on medium heat, fat. Add onion and chicken, sauté, stirring, 10 minutes. Remove from heat, salt, pepper and set aside.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 200'C. Whisk eggs with cream, salt and pepper until smooth.

Step 3

Roll out the whole sheet of dough or cut it into 4 parts, for portion molds. Place the dough in one deep pan or in 4 individual baking pans so that the sides are closed. Prick the dough often with a fork.

Step 4

Spread chicken with bacon and onions on the dough, pour over the egg mixture, garnish with cherry halves.

Step 5

Bake the quiche in the center of the oven until the dough and filling are done, about 30 minutes. Serve hot or chilled.

Quiche with chicken - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use different vegetables in the quiche?

Absolutely! Feel free to add vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, or asparagus. Sauté them with the chicken and onions for the best flavor.

How long can I store leftover quiche?

Store leftover quiche in the refrigerator, in an airtight container, for up to 3-4 days.

Can I make this quiche vegetarian?

Yes, you can! Simply omit the chicken and bacon. Consider adding more vegetables or using a vegetarian meat substitute for a heartier filling.

What's the best way to prevent the crust from getting soggy?

Blind baking the crust before adding the filling can help prevent a soggy bottom. Pricking the dough with a fork also allows steam to escape.

Can I freeze the quiche?

Yes, you can freeze the baked quiche. Let it cool completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil. It can be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.

What's a good side dish to serve with this quiche?

A simple green salad or a light soup complements quiche beautifully. A fruit salad also works well for a brunch setting.

Can I use milk instead of cream?

While cream provides a richer texture, you can use milk as a substitute. The quiche will be less rich, but still delicious. You can also use half-and-half for a middle ground.

How do I reheat the quiche?

You can reheat the quiche in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. You can also microwave individual slices, but the crust may not be as crispy.
