Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mexican Corn Tortilla Quiche.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch pie plate.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bulk pork sausage, stirring frequently, until it is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Step 3
Arrange four corn tortillas in the prepared pie plate, overlapping them and allowing them to extend about 1/2 inch beyond the rim. Place the remaining tortilla in the center.
Step 4
Layer the cooked sausage over the tortillas, followed by the Monterey Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, and chopped green chiles.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, heavy whipping cream, ricotta cheese, and chili powder. Slowly pour this egg mixture over the layered ingredients in the pie plate.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the center is set and puffed up.
Step 7
Once baked, remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh cilantro, and cut into wedges to serve.
