BROCCOLI BAKE



Broccoli Bake image

This easy broccoli bake with cheddar cheese and breadcrumbs is a creamy broccoli casserole that can be a main dish or a side at Thanksgiving.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)
3/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
5 cups coarsely chopped broccoli florets ((about 1 1/4 pounds))
1/4 cup white whole wheat flour
1 3/4 cups non-fat milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 cup freshly grated extra sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a wide, deep cast iron (or other ovenproof) skillet. Once melted, pour the butter into a small mixing bowl, then combine with the Panko breadcrumbs and the Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet. Sprinkle the white whole wheat flour over the top, then whisk constantly for 1 minute, until the butter smells fragrant and the flour turns slightly golden. Very slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly, adding a little at a time so that you break up the clumps of flour as you go. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes, allowing the mixture to bubble. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, mustard, black pepper, and cayenne (if using). Remove the skillet from the heat, then stir in the cheddar until smooth.
  • Add the reserved broccoli, stir to coat, then pat the broccoli into an even layer in the skillet. (Alternatively, if you feel your skillet is not large enough to easily stir in the broccoli without it spilling out, you can combine the two in a separate bowl, then transfer the mixture back into the skillet.)
  • Sprinkle the Panko mixture evenly over the top of the broccoli. Bake until hot and the topping is crisp and light golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. (Tip: For an even crisper topping, place the skillet under your broiler for a few minutes at the end, watching carefully so that it doesn't burn.) Let stand 5 minutes, then serve.

SCALLOPED BROCCOLI AND CHEESE CASSEROLE



Scalloped Broccoli and Cheese Casserole image

I've searched through the recipe collection and did not find anything matching this recipe. It is my daughter's favorite veggie casserole dish and is always requested for her birthday dinner and any other time she plans on coming over for dinner.

Provided by HokiesMom

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 1 casserole, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (16 ounce) bag frozen broccoli florets (petite size)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can low-fat cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 -1 1/2 cup fine breadcrumbs
2 -4 tablespoons butter (or margarine)
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Parboil the broccoli florets until still crisp-tender and then drain well.
  • Place the prepared broccoli in a 9x13 inch baking dish (or at least a 3 quart casserole dish).
  • In a small bowl or 2 cup measure, mix together the soup, milk and 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
  • Pour soup mixture over the broccoli and spread evenly.
  • *Optional* Sprinkle more shredded cheese over the top of the soup mixture.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan then add breadcrumbs and mix together. The breadcrumbs should be lightly coated - use an amount that fits your needs.
  • Spread breadcrumb mixture over the top of the casserole to cover.
  • Bake for 30 minutes in the 350 degree oven (uncovered).
  • I have prepared this dish the day before and covered it well and then actually baked it the next day and it does fine.
  • You can also add cubed cooked chicken to this recipe (about 2 cups). Place the chicken over the broccoli layer and then pour the soup mixture over that. I usually make a bit more soup mixture when adding the chicken. Makes a great one dish meal using leftover ingredients.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli. Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green and tightly closed. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the broccoli properly. Cut the broccoli into 1-inch florets and steam them until they are tender-crisp. Do not overcook the broccoli, or it will become mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese will give the casserole a bold flavor. You can also use a combination of cheeses, such as cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. You can add other ingredients to the casserole, such as cooked chicken, ham, or vegetables. You can also change the flavor of the sauce by adding different herbs and spices.

Conclusion:

Scalloped broccoli and cheese casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover broccoli, and it can also be made ahead of time and reheated. Whether you are serving it as a main course or a side dish, scalloped broccoli and cheese casserole is sure to be a hit.
