Chicken Cauliflower Gratin




This is my take on the classical cauliflower gratin. I add broccoli, broccoli stems and chicken along with a garlicy white sauce.  So yummy, so healthy and full of flavor! 


Ingredients:
Serves for 2 - 3

1/4 bunch of cauliflower
1/4 bunch of broccoli (along with the stems)
2 pieces of chicken breast
2 heap tablespoons of flour 
2 tablespoons of butter
2 cups of milk
2 cloves of garlic
Salt, pepper
Cheddar cheese or any type of melting cheese

How to:

1. Wash and clean the vegetables; cut them into chunks and use loads of broccoli stems. Cut the chicken into not-so-small pieces. Put everything in a pot, top with hot water to boil for 10 minutes. 

2. Meanwhile make the white sauce. Take a small saucepan, put in the flour and butter and start mixing on high heat. When they come together and the flour starts to cook, add cold milk and stir with a wooden spoon to make a smooth white sauce.

3. Add two cloves of chopped garlic, season with salt and pepper and stir for a few minutes more.

4. Drain the vegetables and chicken (do not throw away the water, you can use it in other soups and dishes) into a deep oven dish, pour the white sauce all over.

5. Cook in 200 degree oven for 15 minutes, take it out, top with grated cheese (I used little bit of cheese on this dish to make it less fatty) and leave in the hot oven for another 5 - 10 minutes. Serve when warm. Eat and enjoy!
