Like quiche (4)
I believe the answer is:
eggy
'like quiche' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for eggy that I've seen before include "Like things hens lay" , "Soaked in hens' produce" , "Like an omelette" , "like soldiers retreating from shells?" , "Of a hen about to lay" .)
