New Quiche Lorraine

Servings:

I discovered quiche Lorraine while studying French in high school. After trying many recipes over the years and being dissatisfied with each one I have put my own spin on this classic recipe that results in a crisp crust and tender custard. Serve this new quiche Lorraine with a side salad if desired. Bon appétit!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. 2 Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble. Reserve about 2 tablespoons drippings in the skillet.
  3. 3 Add onion and garlic to the skillet; cook and stir over medium heat until onion is softened, 5 to 10 minutes.
  4. 4 Place thawed pie crust in a pie dish; prick holes in bottom and sides of crust using a fork.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Remove crust from oven and reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  6. 6 Whisk half-and-half and sour cream together in a bowl; beat in eggs. Stir in Swiss cheese, bacon, onion mixture, parsley, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper; pour into crust.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool before slicing into wedges, 10 minutes.
