One egg quiche?

by Jeff Grossman » Thu Dec 17, 2009 2:40 pm

I have one egg, some grated parmesan, and some leftover roasted chicken. I was thinking about combining them, adding some more flavor elements (parsley? sweet red pepper? garlic?), and baking as a pie. Will it work? Or is there not enough goopiness and it's just going to come out hard?

I think it could work, especially if the cooking vessel is small enough. Maybe a crème brûlée dish or something?

If you follow the ratio of one large (2 oz.) egg to one cup of cream/milk/half-and-half, it will work.

Interesting Chef...I always use one egg to 1/3 cup of cream. I would have thought it would be too running with so much liquid, but I will definitely give a try.
