Steps:
- In a small saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, combine the chicken, broth, 1 teaspoon of the salt, smashed garlic, and parsley. Bring just to a boil, remove from the heat, and set aside, covered, until just cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken, strain the broth. Pull the chicken into strips and put in a bowl with about 1/4 cup of the broth. Reserve the rest of the chicken broth.
- Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat, then salt it generously. Add the broccoli and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer broccoli with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Return the water to a boil, add the fusilli and cook, stirring occasionally until al dente to tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes.
- While the pasta cooks, combine the minced garlic, oil, and chile flakes in a large skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until lightly browned and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until somewhat soft, about 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup of the broth, the remaining 2 teaspoons salt, and stir in the butter and 1/4 cup of the pecorino until incorporated. Stir in the chicken and broccoli, bring to a simmer, and remove from the heat.
- Drain the pasta in a colander in the sink. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the remaining 1/4 cup pecorino. Pour the sauce over the pasta, season with pepper, and toss to combine. (If the sauce around the pasta seems "tight", add a little more broth, until it loosely naps the fusilli.) Serve in large bowls and pass additional cheese at the table, if desired.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat. Add salt and then add the pasta. Cook according to the package directions. After 6 minutes, add the broccoli to the pot with the pasta. Once the pasta is al dente, reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over very low heat. Add the garlic and saute just until it begins to sizzle (do not let it brown). Turn the garlic and continue to cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the paprika and season with salt and pepper; stir to arrest the browning. If the garlic appears to be coloring, stir it sooner. Continue to cook until the smaller pieces of garlic become golden.
- Add the pasta and broccoli to the garlic oil. Toss together until combined. Add the butter and stir to melt. Add the cheese and stir again. Moisten the pasta, if necessary, with the reserved pasta water. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with cheese and serve immediately.

OVEN ROASTED TOMATOES
I was afraid we were not going to have enough of these to make the piadinas, because I kept eating them off of the baking sheet!! They are perfect, and cherry tomatoes will work for this also. The yield is a guess. **NOTE: I have made these with cherry tomatoes here at home and found that the temp of the oven should be 275º-300ºF. At 350ºF they will burn because they are so much smaller.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Cut the tomatoes in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.
- Drizzle with olive oil and lightly salt; toss to coat.
- Place on baking sheets lined with parchment paper, cut side up*.
- Bake in oven until skin is wrinkled and juices have been mostly absorbed, but flesh is still moist. Flesh should be soft to the touch. This will take appox 1-2 hours at 350ºF, depending on the size of the tomatoes.
- Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
- *If skins are NOT to be used in dish, roast the tomatoes cut side DOWN and remove skins after roasting and tomatoes are slightly cooled.
- If you want the "charred" flavor of the tomato in the dish, roast cut side DOWN and leave the skins on after roasting.

OVEN ROASTED BROCCOLI
After oven roasting asparagus, green beans, cauliflower I thought WHY NOT BROCCOLI. The result is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and a great new way for me to enjoy one of my favorite veggies. Hope you like it too. The garlic is smashed and diced to get as much garlic flavor as you can from each clove.

Steps:
- Bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add chicken. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover. Simmer until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken; let cool. Using a fork, shred meat into bite-size pieces. Toss with 1 teaspoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt. Add broccoli, and cook until bright green and tender, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain, and pat dry with paper towels. Add pasta to boiling water; cook until al dente. Drain.
- Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add cooked broccoli and the garlic. Cook, stirring often, 2 minutes. Stir in shredded chicken and cooked pasta. Cook 1 minute more. Remove garlic cloves. Transfer pasta mixture to a large platter. Serve with cheese.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and quickly.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices whenever possible.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting vegetables or chicken, make sure to leave enough space between the pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Season your food well: Don't be afraid to use salt and pepper to season your food. A little bit of seasoning can go a long way.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta is mushy and unappetizing.
- Serve immediately: Fusilli chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
This fusilli chicken with oven-roasted tomatoes and broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
