Brunch Crab Quiche image

From Gourmet magazine September 2004. I used store bought pastry instead of making from scratch. The recipe is for the filling only.

Categories     Crab

Time 45m

Yield 1 quiche`, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 lb crabmeat
4 large eggs
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup grated monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup grated swiss cheese
1 frozen pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Whisk together eggs, cream, herbs, salt, pepper and nutmeg, then stir in cheeses and crabmeat.
  • Pour into crust and bake until filling puffs and is no longer wobbly in the center when quiche is gently shaken, 40-50 minutes.
  • Cool in pie plate on rack for 15 minutes.
  • *My quiche filling ran over a bit, so I suggest putting it on a sheet pan covered with foil to avoid dirtying your oven.
