Chorizo Mushroom Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Roll out pie crust and place in pie plate; set aside.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high and saute chorizo, breaking into smaller chunks, for 4-5 minutes or until mostly cooked through. Add onion and cook until onion is soft and chorizo is cooked all the way through. Stir in beans.
• Place cheese in crust then add onion, chorizo & bean mixture.
• Beat eggs and milk together until slightly foamy then add salt and pepper. Pour into pie shell.
• Bake until brown and puffed, about 50 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on wire rack for 15 minutes before cutting and serving.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times. Scatter the butter and lard over the flour and pulse until the mixture forms large crumbs. Add 1/3 cup ice water a few tablespoons at a time, pulsing, until the dough just comes together. (Pulse in up to 2 more tablespoons ice water if the dough is too crumbly.) Flatten the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll out into a 12-inch round. Fit the dough into a 10-inch deep-dish fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, gently pressing it into the sides; trim the excess dough. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until firm, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the pesto: Preheat the broiler. Put the jalapenos on a baking sheet and broil, turning, until charred, about 5 minutes. Remove the stems and seeds. Pulse the jalapenos, cilantro, garlic, pine nuts and olive oil in a food processor until the mixture has a pesto-like consistency. Add the parmigiano, and salt and pepper to taste; pulse a few more times. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Put the tart pan on a baking sheet, line the dough with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edge is lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment and bake until golden, about 20 more minutes. Let cool slightly on a rack.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Put the goat cheese in the freezer for 10 minutes (this makes it easier to slice). Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the chorizo and break it into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon; cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon and let cool slightly. Slice the frozen goat cheese into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
• Scatter the fontina, cotija, scallions, chorizo and thyme over the crust. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl; add the milk and cream and whisk until smooth. Pour into the crust and arrange the goat cheese evenly on top. Bake until the crust is deep golden brown and the edge is set but the center still jiggles slightly, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges and serve with the jalapeno pesto.

Steps:

• Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 350°., In a large skillet, saute the mushrooms, onion and red pepper in butter until mushrooms are tender. Drain and set aside. In a large bowl, combine cheese and flour. Stir in the milk, eggs, savory, salt and cayenne until blended. Stir in mushroom mixture. Pour into crust., Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean (cover edges loosely with foil if needed to prevent overbrowning). Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prepare the mushrooms by snipping off the stems. Cut in half if large.
• Crumble the sausage in a large skillet, add the mushrooms, cook on medium-high heat until the meat and mushrooms are lightly browned and all the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Drain off the grease. Add the parsley.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs, adding the cream, cheese and salt. Pour into the mushroom/sausage mixture; blending well. Pour mixture into the pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until crust is well browned and the filling is set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil.
• Bake at 450 degrees for 8 minutes.
• Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer.
• Cool on wire rack.
• Reduce heat to 350 degrees.
• In large skillet, saute the mushrooms, onions and red pepper in butter until mushrooms are tender.
• Drain and set aside.
• In a bowl, combine the cheese and flour.
• Stir in the milk, eggs, savory, salt and cayenne until blended.
• Stir in mushroom mixture.
• Pour into crust.
• Bake for 40-50 minutes or until knife inserted near the center comes out clean (cover edges loosely with foil if needed to prevent overbrowning).
• Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together eggs, cream (or mixture of milk and cream) and spices, set aside.
• Saute chopped mushrooms, green onions and chorizo together in a pan until mushrooms and chorizo are no longer raw, about 5 - 7 minutes. You may need a dash of olive oil to prevent sticking.
• Have ready a buttered baking dish (I used a cast-iron scone pan, see photo). Place chorizo mixture on the bottom, then cheese, then pour egg mixture over top. Sprinkle with paprika, if desired.
• Bake at 375 degrees for 20-40 minutes, depending on your pan and your oven. CHECK OFTEN as ovens vary. My cast iron scone pan only took 20 minutes!
• Cook until slightly brown on top and eggs do not jiggle. Let set for 10 minutes. You might sprinkle extra green onions or chili flakes on top, if you like - get creative! Sliced black olives make a nice touch.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot add the onion, red pepper, chorizo, oregano, and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the pepper and onions are soft and brown, about 6 minutes. Cool.
• Whisk the eggs, milk, cilantro, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a large liquid measuring cup or medium bowl.
• Arrange the tart shells on a baking sheet and divide the chorizo filling evenly among the tart shells. Pour or spoon the custard mixture over the filling to fill the shells. Bake until the eggs are just set, about 15 minutes. Cool and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times. Scatter the butter and lard over the top of the flour and pulse until the mixture forms large crumbs. Add the water, a few tablespoons at a time, and pulse until the dough just comes together. Divide into 2 equal pieces, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate until chilled through, at least 1 hour.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll 1 of the disks into a 16-inch round. (Reserve the other disk for another purpose. It will keep in the freezer, double wrapped in plastic wrap then single wrapped in foil for up to 4 months.) Fit the dough into a 2-inch deep-dish tart pan with a removable bottom, gently pressing it into the sides. Using a sharp knife, trim the dough evenly with the edge of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap; and chill until firm, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the tart pan on a baking sheet, line the dough with parchment and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until lightly golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove the weights and paper and continue baking until golden brown, about 10 minutes longer. Let cool slightly (not all the way) on a baking rack.
• Put the jalapenos, cilantro, garlic, pine nuts and oil in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until the mixture has a pesto-like consistency; you want a bit of texture. Add the cheese and salt and pepper, to taste, and pulse a few times to distribute the cheese.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels. Let cool slightly.
• Scatter the fontina, Cotija, green onions, chorizo and thyme over the warm tart shell. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add the milk and cream and whisk until smooth. Pour into the shell and evenly distribute the goat cheese over the top. Bake until the crust is deep golden brown and the center is almost set (still slightly jiggles) but the sides are set, about 40 to 50 minutes. Let sit at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges and drizzle jalapeno pesto over the top.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over a high heat, and fry the chorizo for 4-5 mins until crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper using a slotted spoon, and set aside to cool. Set the pan with the fat aside, and leave to cool. For the pastry, put the flour, 1/2 tsp salt, the paprika, cayenne pepper, cooled chorizo fat and the butter in the bowl of a large food processor and blitz until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs. Gradually pulse in 4 tbsp cold water until it comes together into a dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead gently until smooth. Wrap the dough and chill for at least 10 mins. Will keep chilled for up to three days.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the chilled pastry out on a floured work surface to the thickness of a 50p coin then lift it into a 23cm loose-bottomed tart tin, leaving an overhang. Prick the base all over with a fork, line with baking parchment, then fill with baking beans. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 15 mins. Remove the parchment and beans, then bake for 15-20 mins more until golden and crisp. Trim away the pastry that is overhanging using a serrated knife.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, crème fraîche and cream together, season, then stir in the cheese and cooled chorizo. Pour into the pastry case and bake for 25-30 mins until the filling is just set. Leave to cool in the tin, then remove from the tin and slice. Will keep in the fridge for up to three days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large dutch oven or pot, melt butter over medium heat. Saute garlic and onion in butter until lightly transparent. Add the mushrooms, and saute until they are fragrant. Add the spinach, and saute until it reduces down (about 4 minutes). Remove and reserve most of the liquid from the pan. Stir in all the italian cheese and all but 1/2 cup of the cheddar. Season with salt and pepper (make sure to taste at this point, as this is the only time you will be able to adjust the salt and pepper). Spoon mixture into pie crust.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Pour into the pastry shell, allowing egg mixture to thoroughly combine with spinach mixture. Add in the set aside liquid if it seems too dry, and mix thouroghly.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle top with remaining Cheddar cheese, and bake an additional 35 to 40 minutes, until set in center. Allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook sausage over medium high heat for three minutes, chopping into small pieces.
• Add the mushrooms, onion and peppers.
• Cook and stir five minutes longer or until sausage in no longer pink and the vegetables are tender; drain well and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
• Gradually beat in eggs and milk.
• Stir in the cheeses, salt, pepper, nutmeg and the sausage misture.
• Pour into frozen pie shell.
• Bake uncovered (on cookie sheet) at 350 for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edges of crust with foil to prevent over browling.
• Let stand ten minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Crumble chorizo into large skillet. Add onions; cook and stir on medium-high heat 5 to 8 min. or until chorizo is browned and onions are tender. Set aside.
• Microwave cream cheese in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 sec.; whisk until creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition until blended. Whisk in milk. Add shredded cheese and chorizo mixture; mix well.
• Pour cream cheese filling into 9-inch pie plate sprayed with cooking spray. Bake 40 to 45 min. or until knife inserted near center comes out clean.
