Broccoli Garlic Angel Hair Pasta
A delicious and quick pasta dish featuring broccoli and garlic in a savory sauce.
Ingredients
- butter (0.25 cup)
- olive oil (2 tablespoons)
- garlic (6 cloves)
- red pepper flakes (1 teaspoon)
- salt (0 )
- broccoli (1.5 pounds)
- chicken stock (3 cups)
- angel hair pasta (1 package)
- Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (0.5 cup)
Instructions
- Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add garlic and cook, stirring often, until soft but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle in pepper flakes and season with salt.
- Pour chicken stock into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Add broccoli stems and simmer until tender, 10 to 12 minutes; add more stock if mixture starts to dry out.
- While the broccoli stems are cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost tender, about 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add broccoli florets to stems in the skillet; cook until florets are bright green and slightly tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Drain pasta and transfer to a large pot. Pour broccoli sauce over top, add Parmigiano-Reggiano, and stir to combine. Cover the pot and let stand until pasta absorbs excess liquid and finishes cooking, about 2 minutes.
