Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups broccoli floret
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 egg
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 cup pesto
1 ½ cups cherry tomato, halved
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • In a food processor add the broccoli, Parmesan, 1 clove of garlic, 1egg and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pulse until mixture forms a dough like texture, about 2 minutes.

  • Bake for about 30 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy and the bottom is firm.
  • Cool the broccoli cups. Once cooled, remove from the muffin tin.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet medium heat. Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden on all sides.
  • Add the pesto and stir to combine. Remove from the heat.
  • Fill the broccoli Parmesan cups with the pesto chicken. Top with slices of tomatoes and basil.
  • Broccoli Parmesan Cups can be stored up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven.
  • Enjoy!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cups didn't turn out very well. The broccoli was still crunchy and the cheese didn't melt properly.

These cups were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less olive oil.

I had a hard time finding broccoli parmesan cups at the store, so I decided to make my own. They turned out great and they were much cheaper than the store-bought ones.

These cups were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a more flavorful pesto sauce.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but these cups were amazing! The pesto sauce and parmesan cheese really helped to balance out the flavor of the broccoli.

I made these last night and they were delicious! I used a store-bought pesto sauce, but I'm sure it would be even better with homemade. The chicken and broccoli were cooked perfectly and the parmesan cheese added a nice touch of flavor.
