Real men may not eat quiche (except they do) but they absolutely do eat this chicken Lorraine, a play on the classic quiche Lorraine replacing egg pie with succulent chicken. Gooey mozzarella cheese and bacon bits are made, with cream cheese, into a sauce of richness beyond belief. We don't know much about old books from the 80s and the real men that read them, but we do know this dinner is delicious.
