Broccoli Cheddar Potatoes Recipes

BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Pierce each potato several times with a fork; put on a plate and microwave until tender, 10 to 20 minutes.
• Cook the bacon in a large ovenproof skillet until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Pour the fat into a bowl; wipe out and reserve the skillet.
• Add the broccoli to the boiling water and cook 3 minutes, then drain.
• Halve the potatoes lengthwise, then scoop the flesh into a bowl, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell. Place the shells cut-side down in the skillet and brush with the reserved bacon fat. Transfer the skillet to the broiler; broil until golden, about 3 minutes.
• Mash the potato flesh with the butter and sour cream; season with 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste. Toss in the broccoli, scallions, bacon and half of the cheddar. Turn the potato shells cut-side up in the skillet. Stuff with the broccoli mixture and sprinkle with the remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Broil until the cheese melts, 3 to 4 minutes. Toss the spinach with the dressing; serve with the potatoes.

BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR BAKED POTATO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Thoroughly wash and dry potatoes. Prick each in a few spots with a fork. Brush with oil and season with salt.
• Place potatoes directly on rack and bake until soft and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes, depending on size. Meanwhile, toss broccoli with oil. Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. When potatoes are halfway through baking, place sheet on rack in lower third. Cook until broccoli is tender and brown in places, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour. Cook until golden, about 1 minute. Whisk in milk. Boil, whisking, until thickened slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in cheddar, cayenne, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until smooth.
• Remove potatoes from oven. Grab a hot potato with a clean kitchen towel and bang it down firmly on the counter once to fluff up the flesh. Repeat with remaining potatoes. Cut open and season generously with salt and pepper. Top with broccoli and drizzle with cheese sauce; serve.
