Preparation

Step 1

Position a rack 6 inches from the broiler, and heat the broiler on high. Butter a shallow 9x13-inch baking dish. In the dish, toss the squash with the pimientos, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Broil until the squash is just starting to wilt, about 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the cream, Parmigiano, and flour. Pour the mixture evenly over the squash. Top with the panko and broil until bubbly and deep golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
