Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 head broccoli (12 ounces), trimmed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/3 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (2 ounces)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
3 ounces low-moisture mozzarella, such as Polly-O, thinly sliced
1 can (15.5 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F, with a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet on middle rack. Quarter broccoli lengthwise; cut larger pieces in half again (also lengthwise) to create long florets. Remove skillet from oven; swirl in 2 tablespoons oil. Add broccoli and turn to coat, then arrange so a flat side of each piece faces down; season with salt and pepper. Roast 15 minutes.
  • Stir together panko, Parmigiano, remaining oil, garlic, thyme, and oregano; season. Transfer broccoli to a plate. Add marinara to skillet; top with mozzarella and chickpeas. Return broccoli to skillet, browned-sides up. Sprinkle evenly with panko mixture. Roast until panko is golden, mozzarella is melted, and sauce is bubbling, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven; let stand 10 minutes. Serve.

CHICKEN, RICE, AND BROCCOLI SKILLET



Chicken, Rice, and Broccoli Skillet image

My friend Christy and I were watching some movies one night and at intermission, decided it was dinner time. Her little boy, Damian was quite the picky tyke and we knew that feeding him would be what we based our meal on. Well, this was something we'd been meaning to try, so we gave it a go. Four adult and two little thumbs up! Easy, one large skillet, and not a lot of dishes to wash. It was also quick. This is something to throw together after working in the field all day too.
