Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and chilled butter. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
3. Add cold water, a tablespoon at a time, mixing until a firm dough forms.
4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface, then transfer to a tart tin, pressing it gently into the corners.
5. In a pan, sauté the cubed chicken breast and mixed vegetables for about 5 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
6. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, grated cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth.
7. Spread the sautéed chicken and vegetables evenly over the tart crust.
8. Pour the egg mixture over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring it spreads evenly.
9. Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
10. Remove the Chicken and vegetable quiche tart from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips

1. For an even richer flavor, consider adding a touch of garlic or onion powder to the egg mixture.
2. Always use fresh vegetables for this quiche tart. Frozen ones can make the filling watery.
3. Letting the tart cool for a bit after baking helps the flavors meld together and makes slicing easier.

Serving Suggestions

• Slice the Chicken and vegetable quiche tart into even wedges and serve on a bed of fresh salad greens for a wholesome meal.
• A dollop of fresh salsa or a drizzle of hot sauce can spice things up for those who prefer an extra kick.
