Description
Spicy, cheesy Keto Buffalo Chicken Tortilla Quiche with eggs, chicken, and low-carb tortilla. Perfect low-carb breakfast or brunch option.
Ingredients
-
1 Xtreme Wellness low-carb tortilla (or your favorite keto-friendly tortilla)
-
3 large eggs
-
¼ cup cottage cheese (Good Culture brand is recommended)
-
1 green onion, finely diced
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
¼ teaspoon black pepper
-
3 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust based on spice preference)
-
½ cup cooked chicken, chopped (grilled or rotisserie chicken works well)
-
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This temperature will help the quiche cook evenly while crisping the tortilla base.
-
Prepare the Tortilla Crust: Lightly grease a small pie dish or oven-safe skillet. Gently press the low-carb tortilla into the dish, molding it to fit the bottom and sides. This will form the crust for your quiche.
-
Mix the Egg Filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, black pepper, and hot sauce. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
-
Add Chicken and Onions: Stir in the chopped cooked chicken, diced green onions, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture. This helps distribute the flavors evenly throughout the quiche.
-
Pour and Top: Pour the filling into the tortilla-lined dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the top for a golden cheesy crust.
-
Bake the Quiche: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the quiche is set in the center and the top is lightly browned.
-
Cool and Serve: Allow the quiche to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing. This resting time lets the eggs finish cooking and makes slicing cleaner.
