Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium, finely diced onion
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 cup shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 cup lump crab meat
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
• 4 large eggs
• 1.5 cups milk
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until just pink and opaque. Stir in the lump crab meat, parsley, and dill, and cook for 1 additional minute. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and heavy cream until smooth. Gradually whisk in the flour and baking powder until fully incorporated and lump-free.

Step 5

Add the shredded Gruyere cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika into the egg mixture. Fold in the cooled seafood mixture until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top and ensure the ingredients are evenly spread.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is golden brown on top and the center is set (a toothpick inserted into the middle should come out clean).

Step 8

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Garnish with extra parsley or dill if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
