Ingredients
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds broccoli, trimmed, the stems cut into pieces no more than 1/8-inch thick
- 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 clove garlic, smashed in the skins
- 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs, preferably fresh
Preparation
Baking Directions:
1.Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Put the broccoli in a bowl, drizzle on the olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper while tossing to coat; transfer to a gratin dish or any ovenproof dish.
Nestle the garlic in the broccoli and cook until the tops are browning and the stems are crisp-tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
2.Remove the dish from the oven and fish out the garlic.
Sprinkle the top of the broccoli with the blue cheese and then the bread crumbs.
Return to the oven and cook until the cheese is bubbling and the bread crumbs are golden.
Serve hot or warm.
