CREAMY CHICKEN, BROCCOLI AND BACON QUICHE






CREAMY CHICKEN, BROCCOLI AND BACON QUICHE

A gorgeous quiche that is so filling, you won’t be hungry for hours! You can use the entire Miracle Dough batch to make one quiche crust or two. I used the entire Miracle Dough for this quiche.

Miracle Dough:
2 cups grated Mozzarella cheese (500 mL)
2 tbsp butter, melted (30 mL)
1 cup Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2, (250 ml)
1 egg, fork beaten
1/4 tsp Montreal® Chicken Seasoning (1 mL)
1 tbsp coconut flour, optional (15 mL)
Filling:
2 cups chopped broccoli, cooked (500 mL)
2 cups chopped cooked chicken (500 mL)
4 bacon slices, cooked, but not crisp, chopped
4 oz regular cream cheese (125 g)
4 eggs
1/2 cup whipping cream (125 mL)
1 cup grated Swiss cheese (250 mL)

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). 

Miracle Dough: In microwave oven in microwaveable bowl, melt Mozzarella cheese and butter together.  This took 2 minutes in my 1200 Watt microwave oven.   Be careful when removing the bowl with molten cheese. Place Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2, OR Gluten-Free, Grain-Free Bake Mix, page___ on top. In small bowl, beat egg with fork.  Add Montreal® Chicken Seasoning; beat again with fork to combine.  Add to Mozzarella cheese. Stir with a fork or wooden mixing spoon to form a dough ball.  Knead a little to form a soft ball. If necessary work in 1 tbsp (15 mL) coconut flour. The dough should not be too sticky.  Place on parchment or wax paper and using a rolling pin, roll dough out to be a bit larger than a 9-inch (23 cm) glass pie dish. If at any time the dough is more difficult to roll out (only happens if dough is allowed to get too cool), nuke about 20 seconds and it should roll out with ease again.  Place dough in pie dish and make a thick edge with the pastry. Cut bits where it is longer with a kitchen scissors and add to places where it is needed.  Flute this edge with your fingers to make it look attractive.

Filling: In medium bowl combine broccoli, chicken and bacon.  In food processor, process cream cheese.  Add eggs and whipping cream; process.  Pour over chicken, bacon and broccoli mixture. . Pour into pie crust. Sprinkle with Swiss cheese Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
