If the bold flavors of an antipasto charcuterie board are just your style, you can recreate that taste with a rich and satisfying quiche. This Antipasto Quiche combines the goodness of prosciutto, provolone cheese, roasted red peppers, and black olives and bakes them in a flaky pie crust for an elegant dish that is perfect for all occasions.
Ingredients:
- 1 prepared deep-dish piecrust
- 4 eggs
- 1 ½ cups half-and-half
- 1 cup grated provolone cheese
- 2 ounces prosciutto ham, chopped
- 1 tablespoon black olives, chopped
- 1 ½ tablespoons jarred roasted red bell peppers, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven – Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Pie Crust – Place the piecrust in a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges. If desired, lightly pre-bake the crust for 3-4 minutes to prevent sogginess.
- Add the Cheese – Sprinkle the grated provolone cheese evenly over the piecrust.
- Prepare the Filling – In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Add the Additional Ingredients – Add the chopped prosciutto, black olives, and roasted red peppers to the egg mixture.
- Pour and Bake – Slowly pour the egg mixture over the cheese, ensuring even coverage. Place the quiche in the oven and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve – Let the quiche rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with a simple green salad for a complete meal.
This Antipasto Quiche is a wonderful blend of creamy, salty, and slightly tangy flavors, making it a unique and irresistible dish for any occasion.
