Light chicken muffins with quark and cauliflower and peas are a savory dish baked in muffin cups, ideal for a summer lunch or dinner. Finely chopped chicken breast is mixed with cauliflower florets, peas, puréed carrot, quark (farmer's cheese), and an egg. The mixture is divided among muffin cups and baked for 35 minutes at 180°C (350°F) until golden.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Finely chop the chicken breast. Separate the cauliflower into florets, then chop them as well. Peel the carrot and purée it in a blender or food processor.
  2. In a bowl, thoroughly mix the chicken, cauliflower, peas, carrot, quark, and egg. Divide the mixture among the cups of a muffin pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 35 minutes, until golden.

Tip: Grease the muffin pan or line it with paper liners, as the chicken mixture tends to stick. The muffins are done when the centers are firm and no pink juices run out when cut open.
