10 mins prepServes 4
This delicious broccoli recipe features pan-fried broccoli and crispy bacon baked in a creamy parmesan garlic sauce, topped with bubbling mozzarella. A perfect side dish!
1: Preheat broiler (on medium heat if you have the option).
2: Fry the bacon in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat until crispy, then transfer to a paper towel lined plate.
3: Drain most of the bacon fat from the pan, leaving about 1-2 tablespoons for flavor.
4: In the same pan, melt 2 tbsp butter, add the onion and cook until transparent (about 2 minutes).
5: Add the broccoli, season with salt and pepper, and cook while stirring occasionally for about 3 minutes.
6: Add in the garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
7: Pour in the cream, reduce heat to low, and let simmer for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
8: If the sauce is too thin, stir in the cornstarch slurry to combine.
9: Add the bacon and mix everything together.
10: Top with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses and broil until bubbling and golden (about 2-3 minutes).
11: Season with extra pepper if desired, and optionally sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.
