During a recent grocery shopping trip, I was on a search for Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials. At Walmart the Grilled Essentials were easy to find in between sausages and the breakfast meats. There were four different varieties to choose from: Lemon Pepper, Original Grilled, Italian Style and Garlic Herb.
Even more awesome that I noticed was that at our store there were coupons on the packaging:
Part of my mission was to make breakfast with Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials, this was something new to me because I do not normally use chicken to make breakfast. So immediately I searched and search for ideas to try with the Grilled Essentials Chicken Breasts. I didn’t really want to make anything that had anything to do with a chicken sandwich so when I found similar ideas using different kinds of chicken in a Quiche. I thought it wold be worth looking at and to try.
To use the Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials I first chose the Original Grilled variety and chopped the chicken breasts into cubes.
To prepare the Quiche I had coated the pan with hash browns for the crust and placed the cubed Grilled Essentials and cheese onto the hash browns. After that I had mixed the eggs with onion powder and milk to cover the quiche.
After the Potato Crust Chicken Quiche Recipe was done I let it cool for a while before we were able to eat it.
I was actually pleasantly surprised about how the Potato Crust Chicken Quiche Recipe turned out. When I think of breakfast I usually think of sausage and bacon and can definitely say that I think of chicken now as well. The Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials added a really great flavor to the dish and I really can’t wait to try the other varieties. Also to note that I did try the Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials did make a great sandwich as well!
This is definitely a dish that we will try again with Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials. The family loved this so much that it was all gone quickly and there were no left overs.
Here is the recipe:
- 3 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
- 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced cooked chicken (Hillshire Farm Grilled Essentials)
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Pat hash browns with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Press into a well-greased 9-in. pie plate; brush with butter. Bake at 425 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F.
- Sprinkle cheese and chicken into the crust. In a bowl, beat the eggs, milk, onion powder and salt; pour over chicken. Bake for 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
