Ingredients:
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp canola oil
4 each leeks, trim, clean, 3' pieces
1/2 cup chicken broth, reduced sodium, or water
1/4 tsp pepper
1/3 cup Gruyere cheese, shredded
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions:
Cheese and leeks are a natural pairing. If you don't have an ovenproof
skillet, transfer leeks to a shallow baking dish.
1. In an ovenproof skillet, melt butter and oil over medium-high heat. Add
leeks and cook 5 minutes until they begin to 'sweat' (release liquid). Add
broth, salt, and pepper. Cover and continue cooking 15 minutes until leeks
are tender. Uncover and boil off liquid in the skillet.
2. Heat broiler. Sprinkle leeks evenly with cheese. Broil 3 to 4 minutes, 5
from heat source, until browned.
