CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI TWICE-BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH



Chicken and Broccoli Twice-Baked Spaghetti Squash image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium spaghetti squash (2 1/2 to 3 pounds)
1 cup broccoli florets
2 cups 2% milk
1 clove garlic, smashed
4 ounces Neufchatel cheese (or 1/3 less fat cream cheese)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cooked chicken breasts, diced (use rotisserie chicken for a shortcut)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • With a sharp knife, carefully cut about four 1/2-inch slits in the squash to allow steam to escape while it cooks. Put the squash on a baking sheet and roast for about 1 1/2 hours. Let the squash cool for about 20 minutes on the baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a bowl and prepare an ice water bath. Blanch the broccoli briefly in the boiling water, then transfer to the ice bath to cool. Drain and set aside.
  • Cut the squash in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. With a large fork, pull the squash fibers away from the outer peel (use a towel to hold the squash in place if necessary). Reserve the squash and the outer peel.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Put the milk and garlic in a saucepan over medium-high heat and heat until it just begins to simmer, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, add the Neufchatel cheese, Parmesan and 1 cup of the mozzarella and stir until melted. Turn off the heat, stir in the yogurt and season with salt and pepper. Remove the garlic. Add the squash, chicken and broccoli and toss to coat. Divide the mixture between the reserved squash peels. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.
  • Place the stuffed squash onto a baking sheet and broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly, a few minutes.

BAKED SHELLS AND BROCCOLI WITH HAM AND CHEESY-CREAMY CAULIFLOWER SAUCE



Baked Shells and Broccoli with Ham and Cheesy-Creamy Cauliflower Sauce image

Adding toasted whole-wheat breadcrumbs gives this dish a nice crunch that balances out the creaminess of the sauce. Rather than baking the shells with the crumbs on top (which can make them soggy), toast the breadcrumbs separately, and toss a handful over each serving right before you put it on the table.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small head cauliflower, cored and chopped (3 cups)
6 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
4 medium shallots, roughly chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
4 cups skim milk
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
6 ounces pecorino cheese, grated (2 cups)
1/2 pound medium multigrain pasta shells
1/4 pound sliced smoked ham, chopped
1 medium bunch broccoli, trimmed and cut into florets (5 cups)
1/2 cup toasted whole-wheat panko (Japanese breadcrumbs), for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add cauliflower, garlic, shallots, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook until softened but not brown, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with flour; stir to coat well.
  • Gradually stir in milk; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; gently simmer until cauliflower is very soft, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer all to a blender, and puree with nutmeg and half the pecorino until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta until slightly tender but not fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Drain well; return to pot. Add ham, broccoli, and cauliflower sauce; toss to combine. Transfer to a ovenproof 3 1/2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining pecorino, and bake until bubbling in center, about 30 minutes. Heat broiler, and broil until golden brown on top, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Divide among dishes, top with breadcrumbs, and serve immediately.

BROCCOLI CHEDDAR TWICE-BAKED POTATOES



Broccoli Cheddar Twice-Baked Potatoes image

Simple, tasty comfort food! The broccoli makes it easy to sneak some veggies into your family's diet.

Provided by elastigirl

Categories     Potato

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium russet potatoes
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup margarine
1/4 cup skim milk
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup chopped broccoli (fresh or frozen)
2 teaspoons dry ranch dressing mix (optional but delicious)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Bake the potatoes in a 400 degree oven for about 1 hour. *Okay, I s'pose you could use microwaved "baked" potatoes instead to save time and they'd come out fine. But, please, if you do have the time, take the time to bake them. They'll taste much better and the skins will hold up much nicer.*.
  • After the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice each one in half lengthwise and scoop the guts out into a large mixing bowl, being careful to leave the skins intact. Place skins on ungreased cookie sheet and set aside.
  • Add margarine to potato guts and mash using a potato masher until fairly smooth.
  • Add sour cream, milk, 1/2 cup of the cheese, ranch dressing mix, chopped broccoli, and seasonings, and mix well.
  • Spoon the potato mixture back into the skins, top with the remaining cheese, and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.

DIJON-BAKED CHICKEN WITH RICE AND BROCCOLI



Dijon-Baked Chicken with Rice and Broccoli image

If you forget to marinate this overnight, don't worry; it's still great if you cook the chicken in the sauce as soon as you make it. It's just better when it marinates.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

10 to 12 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 3/4 pounds)
1 tablespoon curry powder
3 tablespoons frozen chopped onions
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Asian-style hot chili sauce (can be chili-garlic sauce)
1 1/2 cups basmati or white rice
3 cups water
5 cups frozen broccoli florets
1/8 teaspoon your favorite supermarket-style seasoning mix

Steps:

  • The night before: Unravel thighs to flatten and scrunch together in a large shallow oven-safe pan. Combine the following in a small mixing bowl in this order: spices, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and hot chili sauce. Stir. Pour evenly over chicken. Flip the chicken around with a fork until each piece is well coated. End by making sure the rough side of the thigh is down. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine rice and water in a larger oven-safe pot. Stir. Cover and place in preheated oven.
  • Turn chicken over with a fork. Place in preheated oven, beside rice. Set timer for 50 minutes. About halfway through the cooking time for chicken, I like to flip the chicken over again. When the timer rings for chicken, turn off heat but leave it in the oven.
  • Rinse broccoli in colander. Place in a microwave-safe pot or casserole dish with lid. Cover, then microwave at high for 5 minutes. When timer rings, add seasoning mix to broccoli.

BAKED ALFREDO PASTA WITH BROCCOLI RABE AND LEMON



Baked Alfredo Pasta With Broccoli Rabe and Lemon image

One of the great things about baked pastas is that you can get two different textures in one dish. Take the typical pasta Alfredo that's prepared in a skillet: It's delightfully creamy and lush, but the same, bite after bite. But add a green vegetable to that Alfredo pasta, pile it into a dish, top it with melty cheese and a crunchy bread crumbs, then bake it, and you get a vegetarian dinner that's got it all. If broccoli rabe isn't your thing, you can substitute cut asparagus or broccoli florets.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     dinner, weeknight, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
2 cups finely grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
Black pepper
1 pound casarecce, cavatappi or other small tubed or curly pasta
1 bunch broccoli rabe, trimmed, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup heavy cream
1 small garlic clove, grated
6 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 500 degrees. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Place the butter in a 9-by-13-inch/3-quart pan or baking dish and transfer it to the oven to melt while the oven heats; remove it from the oven once it's melted.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the panko, 1/4 cup Parmesan and the lemon zest. Add 1 tablespoon of the melted butter from the baking pan, stir until the panko is moistened with butter, then season with salt and pepper.
  • When the water's boiling, add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package instructions suggest. During the last minute of cooking, add the broccoli rabe. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain the pasta and broccoli rabe.
  • Whisk the cream, garlic and pasta water into the melted butter in the baking dish until smooth. Add the remaining Parmesan in large handfuls, vigorously whisking until smooth and combined. Add the pasta, broccoli rabe and half the mozzarella. Taste, and season well with salt and pepper. Stir until very combined.
  • Top with the remaining mozzarella, then sprinkle evenly with the panko mixture. Bake until the mozzarella has melted and the panko is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

INCREDIBLE BAKED CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI CANNELLONI



Incredible Baked Cauliflower and Broccoli Cannelloni image

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Sea salt
1 pound broccoli, washed, florets and stalks chopped
1 pound romanesco or white cauliflower, washed, florets and stalks chopped
Olive oil
7 cloves garlic, peeled and finely sliced
1 small bunch fresh thyme, leaves picked
1 (1-ounce) can best-quality anchovies in oil, drained and chopped, oil reserved
2 to 3 small dried chiles, crumbled
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups good-quality tomato sauce
Good-quality red wine vinegar
2 cups creme fraiche
7 ounces Parmesan, finely grated
16 cannelloni tubes
1 small bunch fresh basil, leaves picked
7 ounces good-quality mozzarella cheese
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 large handfuls arugula leaves, washed and dried
1 lemon

Steps:

  • This is a twist on the classic Italian dish of orecchiette with broccoli, anchovies and garlic - I've added cauliflower and made it an oven-baked dish. The flavors are amazing.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil and drop in the chopped broccoli and cauliflower. Boil for 5 to 6 minutes, until cooked, then drain in a colander, reserving the cooking water.
  • Heat a wide saucepan, pour in a couple of good glugs of olive oil and add the garlic. Fry for a few seconds, then add the thyme leaves, anchovies, anchovy oil and chiles and continue frying for a few seconds more before adding the cooked broccoli and cauliflower with around 4 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water. Stir everything together, put a lid on the pan leaving a little gap, and cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring regularly - overcooking the vegetables not only intensies their flavor but gives you the texture that you need for this recipe. Remove the lid for the last 5 minutes to let the moisture evaporate, then use a potato masher to crush the vegetables. Take the saucepan off the heat, taste the vegetables and season carefully with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Meanwhile, get yourself another baking dish or roasting pan (the right size for fitting the cannelloni tubes snugly side by side - I test this by actually laying the tubes into the dish, then remove them and put to 1 side) and pour in the tomato sauce with a pinch of salt and a swig of red wine vinegar.
  • Now, to make a really quick and easy white sauce, mix the creme fraiche with half the Parmesan, a sprinkling of salt and pepper and a little of the reserved cooking water to thin it down.
  • Spoon your cooled broccoli and cauliflower mixture into a large sandwich bag and cut off the corner. Twist the top of the bag and squeeze it to pipe the filling into the cannelloni tubes. (If you prefer, use a teaspoon to push the mixture into the cannelloni or use a piping bag.) Fill the tubes up - don't be stingy! - and place them in a single layer on top of the sauce. Lay the basil leaves over the cannelloni and spoon your white sauce evenly over the top. Season with black pepper, sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan and tear over the mozzarella. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden and bubbling on top.
  • Dress the arugula leaves with a squeeze of lemon juice and about 3 times as much extra- virgin olive oil. Serve the cannelloni with the arugula and some good crusty bread.

BAKED BROCCOLI FRITTATA



Baked Broccoli Frittata image

This was my introduction to the concept of the frittata, from a Light Cuisine cookbook of my mother's. I have used every combination from the 6 eggs and 2 egg whites, to 4 eggs and a cup of egg substitute, to 2 cups of egg substitute, all with success (though it's a bit tastier with a real egg or two included).

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter

BAKED BROCCOLI PATTIES



Baked Broccoli Patties image

Can you say SCRUMPTIOUS? This recipe comes from SkinnyTownUSA (look for them on Facebook). These patties were so easy to make, are healthy because they are baked not fried, and clean-up is a snap. I've made them several times and have even added cauliflower and shredded zucchini. They are just as yummy cold as they are hot,...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 onion, diced fine
16 oz frozen broccoli, thawed, rough chop
1 c panko crumbs
1/2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1/3 c parmesean cheese, grated
2 eggs, beaten slightly
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray.
  • 2. Heat oil and saute the onions and garlic until softened. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
  • 3. Place the thawed broccoli in a kitchen tea towel and twist each end tightly to remove any excess water. In a bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the cheeses. Give the broccoli a rough chop.
  • 4. Add the broccoli, garlic, onions and Panko crumbs to the egg/cheese mixture and mix well.
  • 5. Form patties and place on baking sheet. (The mixture has a wet consistency at this point--you don't think they will hold together, but they do.)
  • 6. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip the patties over and cook for another 15 minutes.
  • 7. ENJOY! I can see dipping these in a garlic aioli, mayo/dill or ranch dressing if one was so inclined. Great grab-n-go snacks. Note: I've also added cauliflower and/or shredded zucchini...works just as well.

Baked Broccoli-and-Artichoke Shells image

When it comes to pairing up with artichokes, why should spinach get to have all of the fun? In this weeknight-friendly pasta bake, broccoli is the green machine responsible for adding that extra boost of vitamin C and fiber. But truth be told, it's the creamy cheddar cheese sauce and smoky bacon folded in before baking that makes this dish an all-around crowd-pleaser.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces medium pasta shells
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 ounces broccoli, stalks peeled and sliced, florets separated
1/2 cup panko
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
3 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3 1/2 cups whole milk
1 cup grated sharp white cheddar
1 can (14 ounces) quartered artichoke hearts, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Cook pasta in a pot of salted boiling water 4 minutes. Add broccoli and cook 2 minutes more; drain. Combine panko and 2 tablespoons Parmigiano.
  • In a saucepan, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels. Add butter to pan; melt. Whisk in flour; cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk. Bring to a simmer; cook, whisking, until thickened slightly, about 4 minutes. Stir in remaining Parmigiano, cheddar, artichokes, broccoli, pasta, and bacon; season to taste.
  • Transfer mixture to a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with panko mixture. Bake until golden and bubbling, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Prepare the broccoli properly: Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets. If you are using frozen broccoli, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Season the broccoli well: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for roasted broccoli. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or thyme.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to create crispy, tender florets. Roast the broccoli at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender and slightly charred.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately: Roasted broccoli is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can drizzle it with olive oil, lemon juice, or balsamic vinegar before serving.

Conclusion:

Baked broccoli is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or snack. It is a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. With its crispy, tender texture and slightly charred flavor, roasted broccoli is a surefire hit. Experiment with different seasonings and toppings to find your favorite way to enjoy this healthy vegetable.
