Ham and Chive Quiche
 
Yield: 8 servings • Preparation: 15 minutes • Bake: 15 to 18 minutes
Ingredients
  • 1 (14-ounce) package refrigerated pie dough (2 sheets)
  • 1 cup diced smoked ham (¼-inch cubes)
  • 1 cup coarsely shredded fontina cheese
  • 1¼ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. Unroll pie dough on a lightly floured surface. Using a 4-inch round cutter, cut 8 circles from dough. Press each circle into a 4-inch tart pan, trimming excess dough as necessary. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  3. In a small nonstick sauté pan, sear ham over medium-high heat until very lightly browned.
  4. Place 1 tablespoon ham and 2 tablespoons cheese in each prepared tart pan.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine cream, eggs, salt, and pepper, whisking well.
  6. Divide egg mixture evenly among tart pans. Sprinkle each quiche with ¼ teaspoon chives. Place tart pans on a rimmed baking sheet.
  7. Bake until quiches are set and slightly puffed, 15 to 18 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately.
