Ingredients
- 1 bunch broccoli (about 1 pound), trimmed and cut into large florets
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 2 tablespoons melted
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 3/4 cup grated gruyere cheese
- 3/4 cup panko
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Set up a steamer basket in a 3-quart saucepan. Add enough water to come up to the bottom of the basket. Bring the water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets to the basket, cover and cook until the broccoli is soft and nearly falling apart but still holds its shape, about 15 minutes.
- Transfer the broccoli to a large bowl. Add the butter and gently toss; season with salt and pepper.
- Arrange the broccoli in an even layer in a 2-quart baking dish. Combine the gruyere, panko, melted butter and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and sprinkle over the broccoli.
- Bake until the cheese melts and the top is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
