I love quiche and this one is a great one.
2 cups cooked rotisserie chicken, cubed or shredded
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1 large sweet onion, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
7 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
arugula, garnish, optional
Step 1: Preheat oven to 375ยบ F and grease a 9 inch springform pan.
Step 2: Heat olive oil a small skillet on medium heat. Add onion and saute until tender, then stir in garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, salt and pepper. Stir in chicken, cauliflower, onion and 1 1/4 cups cheddar cheese.
Step 4: Pour quiche mixture into the springform pan, then place that into a larger pan filled with water. (The water should come about halfway up the sides.)
Step 5: Transfer to the oven and bake for 35-45 minutes, (until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean), then sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese over the top and bake for 2-3 more minutes more.
Step 6: Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes, then loosen quiche from the sides by running a thin spatula around the inside rim. Carefully remove the ring and transfer quiche (with bottom base of pan) to a serving plate.
Step 7: Garnish with arugula
