BLISSED-OUT CRISPY CHEESY BROCCOLI GRATIN



Blissed-Out Crispy Cheesy Broccoli Gratin image

Limited surface area. This is the problem with a broccoli gratin made in a casserole-style baking dish, meaning the ratio of crispy-cheesy-crumb-y topping to soft, tender broccoli is just way under optimal balance. With a sheet pan, however, every single morsel of broccoli gets an ample coating of crunch. You know what else is awesome? With a preheated sheet pan (see note), the time it takes to roast the broccoli is minimal-I'm talking 15 minutes, tops, for caramelized edges and florets. Meaning you can hit broccoli bliss in under 20 minutes. Are you in?

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 pounds broccoli florets (I like leaving about 1 inch of the stem attached)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
3/4 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup finely grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Adjust one oven rack to the upper-middle position and another rack to the position. Place a rimmed sheet pan on the middle rack and preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Toss the broccoli florets with the olive oil and salt in a medium-size bowl. Turn the broccoli out onto the hot sheet pan (it should sizzle!) and roast until the bottom of the florets are nicely browned, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the butter and garlic in a ramekin and place it in the oven until the butter melts, 5 minutes. (Alternatively, combine them in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high power in 15-second increments, swirling between each, until the butter melts, 45 seconds to 1 minute.)
  • Place the bread crumbs in a medium-size bowl, add the butter-garlic mixture, and toss with a fork. Add the Cheddar and Parmigiano Reggiano cheeses and toss to combine.
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven and sprinkle the broccoli with the cheesy bread crumb mixture. Turn the broiler to high and place the sheet pan on the upper rack. Broil until the cheese is melted and browned, 1 to 2 minutes (watch the bread crumbs closely as broiler intensities vary and you don't want them to burn). Remove from the oven, transfer to a platter-making sure to scrape up all of the crispy, crunchy cheesy bits-and serve.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
2 pounds broccoli, stalks discarded, crowns cut into florets
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 11/2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and lemon peel and stir 30 seconds. Add broccoli and toss to coat. Add 1/2 cup water. Cover skillet and cook until broccoli is crisp-tender and water has cooked away, about 5 minutes. Add cheese and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces: This will help it cook evenly.
  • Steam or roast the broccoli: Steaming or roasting will help preserve the broccoli's nutrients and bright green color. You can also sauté the broccoli, but be careful not to overcook it.
  • Add the garlic and cheese at the end of cooking: This will help prevent the garlic from burning and the cheese from becoming rubbery.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately: This dish is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Cheesy garlic broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
