Provided by Aida Mollenkamp

Categories     main-dish

Time 13h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
6 medium scallions, ends trimmed and thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
8 ounces asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 pound loaf ciabatta or French bread, sliced 3/4-inch thick
1 1/2 cups shredded Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
1/2 cup pickled jalapenos, rinsed and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
Sour cream, for garnish
Avocado, for garnish

Steps:

  • Butter 8-by-8-inch baking dish and set aside. Heat butter over medium heat. When it foams, add scallions, and cook until just softened, about 1 minute. Add asparagus and cook until bright green and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes; remove from heat.
  • Whisk eggs, half-and-half, salt, cumin, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly combined. Arrange half of the bread in bottom of prepared dish. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the cheese and half each of jalapenos, cilantro, and asparagus mixture. Pour over half of egg mixture. Repeat layering with remaining bread, another 1/2 cup of the cheese, and remaining chilies, cilantro and asparagus mixture. Pour remaining egg mixture over top.
  • Sprinkle strata with another 1/4 cup of the cheese and push to ensure bread is submerged in egg custard. Cover with plastic wrap, put a plate and a 1-pound weight on top (a large can of tomatoes or rice in a re-sealable plastic bag works well), place in refrigerator for 1 to 12 hours.
  • When ready to bake, heat oven to 325 degrees F and arrange rack in the middle. Let strata sit at room temperature while oven heats, at least 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle strata with remaining 1/4 cup of the cheese and bake until puffed and edges pull away slightly, about 40 to 45 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving. Serve with some cilantro, sour cream, and avocado, as desired.

In a bowl, lightly beat eggs; add milk, onion, salt and mustard; pour over bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees F for 50 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Return to the oven for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 loaf Italian bread (break up into cubes) or 1 loaf French bread (break up into cubes)
6 eggs
2 cups milk
16 ounces shredded swiss cheese
1 rotisserie-cooked chicken (Picked off of the bone. I use only the breast, but you can use the whole chicken)
1 bunch asparagus
3 shallots
2 tablespoons olive oil
Pam cooking spray

Steps:

  • Spray baking dish with Pam (9X13).
  • Pick rotisserie chicken from the bone and set aside. Let cool.
  • Finely chop 3 shallots and sauté in olive oil. Add shallots to chicken and let cool.
  • Boil a small pot of water - cut the fresh asparagus up into 1 inch pieces. Add the asparagus pieces to the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes. Strain and put asparagus pieces in an ice water bath to stop cooking. Remove asparagus and dry on a paper towel. Add to the chicken.
  • Mix eggs and milk in separate dish (make sure eggs are well beaten).
  • Add cubed bread, shredded cheese, chicken, shallots and asparagus to the egg and milk mixture. Make sure chicken, asparagus and shallots are all cooled before adding them to the egg mixture.
  • Pour all ingredients into your baking dish
  • Bake on 350 degrees for 45 minutes. It will puff up slightly, like a quiche. Let is set for about 15 minutes before serving. It will settle and fall a bit.
