Coffee Pairing | Hispanic Quiche Quick Breakfast Idea

Author: This Worthey Life

Ingredients

  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup Chorizo
  • 3/4 cup grated Gruyère cheese
  • 3 tablespoons diced Spanish onion
  • 1 small fresh Ancho pepper small dice
  • 1/3 cup Swiss Chard chopped
  • McCormick Chipotle Sea Salt
  • Freshly cracked black peppercorns
  • 3 prepared pastry dough
  • 2 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided

Instructions

  • Thaw prepared pastry dough and fit into mini springform pans, cut away extra dough and crimp the edges. I left the dough a bit rustic and they turned out just fine. Set aside.
  • Add a tablespoon of EVOO to a medium-size skillet, when the oil is hot add the Spanish onions, Ancho peppers, and chopped Swiss Chard, add a pinch of sea salt and freshly cracked black peppercorns. Sauté mixture for 3 minutes, remove from vegetables with a slotted spoon into a bowl and set aside.
  • Wipe the skillet clean and add a tablespoon of EVOO, when the oil is hot add the ground chorizo. Break apart with a wooden spoon and brown. Transfer chorizo using a slotted spoon onto a plate lined with paper towel, and discard the excess grease. Set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl add eggs and thoroughly whisked, add heavy cream, grated cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of McCormick Chipotle Sea Salt, and freshly cracked black peppercorns and mix well.
  • Gently toss the chorizo with the Spanish, Ancho pepper, and Swiss chard mixture. Divide the mixture into the prepared mini springform pans.
  • Divide the egg, heavy cream, and grated Gruyère cheese mixture into the mini springform pans, leaving a half-inch space from the rim.
  • Spoon in one large heaping tablespoon of whipped potatoes into the center of the quiche mixture.
  • Place the springform pan(s) onto a cookie sheet and position the sheet on the center rack of a 350 degree preheated oven.
  • Cook for 40 minutes or until the quiche is just set. Remove quiche from the oven and allow them to set for 15 minutes.
  • Top each with a dollop of Cilantro + Chive Mayo and serve.
