Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the quiche evenly and thoroughly.
Cook the turkey: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the diced turkey for 3 to 5 minutes. This step removes excess moisture, ensuring a better texture in the quiche. Set the turkey aside to cool slightly.
Combine turkey and cream cheese mixture: In a mixing bowl, stir together the warm cooked turkey, cream cheese, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. The cream cheese will melt and blend with the turkey, creating a creamy filling base.
Assemble the quiche base: Spread the turkey and cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onion evenly on top of the meat mixture.
Prepare custard mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth. This mixture will set the quiche filling when baked.
Pour and bake: Pour the egg and cream mixture over the layers in the pie crust, making sure it is evenly distributed. Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the quiche is firmly set and the top is golden brown.
Cool and serve: Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to allow it to set fully before slicing and serving.

Notes

Make sure the cooked turkey is not wet to avoid a soggy crust.
Use a deep-dish pie crust for best results and adequate filling support.
If you prefer milder flavors, reduce or omit the hot sauce.
The quiche can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat slices gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
