Caramelized Onion, Spinach and Gruyere Strata with Sauteed Cherry Tomatoes image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 cups cubed day-old French bread
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 large Spanish onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 10-ounce box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
10 large eggs
3 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups grated aged Gruyere cheese (about 8 ounces)
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
For the tomatoes:
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 pints cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Put the bread on a baking sheet and toast until lightly golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. Remove and let cool.
Meanwhile, heat the butter and canola oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and toss to coat, then add the sugar and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the toasted bread, caramelized onions and spinach. In another large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, heavy cream, 1 1/2 cups cheese, the mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the thyme and nutmeg. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the bread mixture to the baking dish, then pour the egg mixture over the bread and press down to make sure it is totally submerged.
Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake the strata, uncovered, until it is golden brown on top, puffed slightly and doesn't shimmy with uncooked custard when you shake the pan, 50 minutes to 1 hour; sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese during the last 10 minutes of baking. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
Meanwhile, prepare the tomatoes: Heat the canola oil in a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the cherry tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chives and remove from the heat. Serve the strata with the sauteed tomatoes.

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 slices white bread
Butter, for greasing
1 pound mixed mild and medium sausage, such as Salt Lick sausage
2 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of pepper
Dash hot sauce
6 beaten eggs
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced, optional
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced, cooked unpeeled red potatoes
1 cup grated Cheddar
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

Cube the bread and place it in a lightly greased 8-by-11-by-2 inch casserole.
Fry the sausage until it is almost browned completely and drain on some paper towels. Mix the half-and-half, dry mustard, salt, pepper, hot sauce and eggs together. Layer the sausage over the bread and top with a generous layer of potatoes. If you are using mushrooms, layer them in before the potatoes. Sprinkle the cheeses on the top. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the casserole. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour to overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake the casserole until it is set and does not jiggle in the middle, 30 minutes.
