Simply Chicken Quiche

  1. I boiled two chicken breasts for my quiche, but this would make great use of leftover chicken.
  2. As a matter of fact, if you have cheese board leftovers, you certainly don’t have to use cheddar cheese. Use your favorite or what you have on hand.
  3. In most quiche recipes you can simply omit the crust to cut carbs making it a frittata instead. However, I do not recommend omitting the crust in this Simply Chicken Quiche recipe. There are not enough eggs to bind the ingredients together. Of course, you could scoop it out with a spoon, but it won’t stay together to serve a pretty slice.
  4. I used a 9-inch crust, not a deep dish.
  5. Of course, you can add vegetables to this recipe. In place of 1 cup of chicken, you could use broccoli, spinach, onions, peppers, etc. This I made for a friend and it was designed to be basic chicken only.
  6. You could also substitute the chicken with turkey (leftover Thanksgiving turkey!!!) or ground sausage. It won’t be a chicken quiche then but it’ll still be great with a pork breakfast sausage.
  7. Another great hint, double the recipe and freeze one. They freeze really well. Quiche can be frozen before or after baking. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or foil. Baking first may make the quiche a little easier in the freezer. To freeze quiche before baking, place the quiche on a tray or baking pan where it will be level and will not slide. Freeze until firm. Then you may remove the tray.
  8. I recommend using a metal pan when freezing.
  9. To cook my quiche before freezing it. Then I sit it in the refrigerator the night before. Wrapped in foil, I then put it in a cold oven and turn the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Check at 30 minutes and remove foil.
  10. I also recommend baking it on a cookie sheet or sheet tray to catch any spills.

    I made this tonight, my first quiche ever! It was delicious and browned perfectly. I added 1/2 cup chopped onion, other than that, followed your recipe. (I’m a notorious “adder” of ingredients!) I will definitely be making this again soon!

    Very good! I added some shredded Gouda to the mix and on top, plus some herbs de Provence. I also added a couple extra eggs so that I could bake it sans crust and it worked out great. Thanks!
