Ingredients

• 1 piece pre-made pie crust
• 1 cup cooked lobster meat
• 4 pieces large eggs
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 1 cup grated Gruyère cheese
• 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Roll out the pre-made pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim excess dough and crimp the edges. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until fully combined.

Step 4

Stir in the Gruyère cheese, green onions, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Gently fold in the cooked lobster meat, ensuring it is coated in the egg mixture without breaking down the chunks.

Step 6

Place the chilled pie crust onto a baking sheet. Pour the filling into the crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Dot the top with the teaspoon of unsalted butter for added richness.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
