Make the crust
In a food processor, combine the flour, cornmeal and salt. Pulse a few times to combine. Sprinkle the butter cubes over the dry ingredients and pulse the mixture until most of the butter pieces are pea-sized, about 6 pulses.

Add the ice water
Sprinkle the ice water over the crust mixture and pulse until moist clumps form, about 6 pulses. If needed, sprinkle additional ice water in by the tablespoonful, pulsing between each addition, until the dough holds together.
4 tablespoons chilled water
Line the pie pan
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9” pie pan. Use a fork to prick holes all over the crust (including the sides) and cover the dough with plastic if desired. Place in the freezer and chill at least 30 minutes, up to 2 days.

Start the quiche filling
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, sour cream, corn starch, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Use an immersion blender to blend the filling until very smooth. Alternatively, whisk the filling until smooth.

Finish the quiche
Sprinkle about half of the mozzarella and jack cheese over the crust bottom, then sprinkle the drained chiles over the top. Gently pour in the quiche filling (to avoid disturbing the cheese and chiles too much), then sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
4 ounces shredded mozzarella
7 ounces diced green chilies
4 ounces shredded Monterey Jack
Bake the quiche

Remove the quiche from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack. Allow the quiche to cool at least 10 minutes before slicing into wedges and serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
