How to Make Chicken Spinach And Mushroom Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan, sauté 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion in 1 tablespoon olive oil until softened. Add 1 pound cooked chicken, diced; 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped; 1/2 cup dry white wine; 2 tablespoons lemon juice; and 1/2 cup chicken broth.
  3. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and poach for 12 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through.
  4. Remove chicken from pan and set aside to cool completely. Dice chicken into 1/2-inch pieces.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Spread 8 ounces shredded Gruyere cheese (or similar) in the bottom of a 9-inch pie crust.
  7. Layer 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced; 5 ounces fresh spinach, roughly chopped; and the diced chicken over the cheese.
  8. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the filling.
  9. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
