Ingredients:

• 1 lb Lobster Meat, thawed as per package instructions
• 4 tbsp Garlic Herb Butter, divided + extra to butter the pan
• 4 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup freshly grated kashkaval or sharp cheddar cheese, divided
• 1 medium-size bell pepper (any color), chopped

• 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Butter a 9in quiche or tart pan.
2. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a skillet. Sauté the lobster meat in butter for a couple of minutes. Remove lobster from skillet and place in buttered quiche/tart pan.
3. Whisk the eggs in a medium size mixing bowl. Add milk, heavy cream, chives, salt and pepper, and whisk again until combined. Pour mixture over lobster in the pan. Distribute 1/2 cup grated cheese evenly over the mixture.
