For the filling

  • 1 cup chopped green onions
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

Instructions
 

Preparation of the Dough

  • In a food processor, combine flour, cold butter, egg, Parmesan cheese, and cold water. Process until the mixture forms a dough that sticks to the sides.
  • Remove the dough, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough and line a greased 24 cm tart pan with parchment paper. Prick the base with a fork and cover it with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 10 minutes until slightly cooked.

Preparation of the Filling

  • Sauté the sliced red onions in a skillet until softened. Season with salt, pepper and add honey until caramelized. Stir in the chopped green onions and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add a bit more olive oil and sauté the mushrooms until golden. Add the shredded chicken, cream, chili powder, dried herbs, and season with salt and pepper. Mix in the caramelized onions.
  • Add the cheeses to the filling and stir to combine.
  • In a bowl or the same skillet, mix all filling ingredients with the semi-beaten eggs.

Assembly and Baking

  • Pour the filling over the prepared tart crust and bake in the preheated oven at 180°C for about 30 minutes until the filling is firm.

Notes

This tart is best served warm. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top can add an extra touch. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
