Ingredients
- 200 g salmon fillet
- 4 large eggs
- 120 ml whole milk
- 60 ml heavy cream
- 80 g cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon fillet for 3-4 minutes on each side until it flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, and break it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, and flaked salmon.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 6
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 30-35 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is lightly golden.
Step 7
Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
