Side Dish 40 Mins.

Ingredients

2

2 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) package baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ½ cup half-and-half
  • 1 teaspoon granulated onion
  • ½ teaspoon granulated garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon ancho chile powder
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • ⅔ cup shredded habanero-flavored cheese (such as Cabot®)
  • 2 tablespoons panko bread crumbs

Instructions

  • Place spinach and water in a microwave-safe steamer. Microwave until spinach is wilted down, about 2 minutes. Drain off liquid and set spinach aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and whisk in flour to create a paste. Season with salt. Pour in half-and-half, whisking continuously until smooth. Add onion, garlic, ancho chile powder, and cayenne, whisking until incorporated. Add spinach.
  • Set aside 2 tablespoons habanero-flavored cheese. Stir remaining cheese into the spinach mixture and spoon into a small oval baking dish. Sprinkle with reserved cheese and bread crumbs.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler and broil until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
