Rocket Mushroom Bacon Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a medium skillet, over medium-high heat until just crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat in the pan. Add 2 tablespoons butter, the mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring over medium heat, until the mushroom juices evaporate, about 7 to 10 minutes. Add the shallots and cook until tender and mushrooms are golden, about 3 minutes more. Add the garlic and parsley. Remove from heat, cool slightly.
• Brush a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan with the remaining butter and sprinkle evenly with the grated Parmesan. Place pan on a baking sheet. Scatter half the Gruyere into the pan and crumble the bacon on top. Add 3/4 of the mushrooms, then the remaining cheese.
• Whisk the half-and-half, eggs and yolks in large glass measuring cup. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. Pour the custard over the fillings. Top with remaining mushroom mixture and sprinkle with chives.
• Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, about 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove from pan and drain on a brown paper bag or paper towels and reserve the fat in the pan. Chop the bacon when cooled and reserve.
• To the same skillet with reserved bacon fat, add the onions and mushroom stems and cook until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are browned, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl mix together the eggs, milk, herbs and salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the cheese, the reserved bacon and the mushroom mixture.
• Pour the filling into the pie crust. Put on a baking sheet and bake until the quiche has set and top and crust has browned, about 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Sprinkle bottom of pastry-lined quiche/tart pan or pie plate with 1 tbsp dry breadcrumbs (this will absorb any excess moisture).
• Place bacon in a large skillet; cook over medium high heat until evenly brown; remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper toweling; set aside.
• With 2 tbsp of the bacon fat, sauté onion and mushrooms until all the liquid released by the mushrooms has evaporated; add spinach and cook 1-2 minutes, just until spinach wilts; add reserved bacon, coriander and nutmeg and season lightly (remember there will be salt in the cheese); place in pastry and top with 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese.
• Beat together cream cheese, eggs and milk; season to taste; carefully pour over quiche and gently shake quiche to distribute custard.
• Bake in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until quiche is golden-brown, sprinkling with 1/2 cup of cheese 10 minutes before quiche is done (put the quiche directly on the oven floor for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to crisp up the crust); cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
