Description

This is not your average broccoli and cheddar gratin, it is a hyped up version that is more gourmet. It's made with Gruyere cheese, broccoli, scallions all topped with toasted panko breadcrumbs, for a delicious crunch.

Ingredients

• 3 T.olive oil
• 6 c. broccoli florets from a small head of broccoli
• kosher salt, to taste
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 c. heavy cream
• 1/2 t. freshly grated nutmeg
• 1 c. grated Gruyere cheese
• 1/4 c. thinly sliced scallions, white and green parts
• 1/2 c. panko breadcrumbs, toasted

Steps

1. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat; add olive oil and then the broccoli and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute. Add garlic; cook until garlic becomes fragrant, about 1 minute.
2. Reduce heat to medium, add cream and nutmeg, and cook until the cream reduces slightly and the broccoli is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add the Gruyere and cook, stirring constantly until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
3. Remove from the heat, stir in the scallions, top with the toasted panko breadcrumbs, and serve.
