Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups chopped fresh broccoli
1 (16 ounce) package uncooked rotini pasta
½ cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup lemon juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the broccoli, and cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Remove the broccoli with a slotted spoon; set aside. Stir the rotini into the same pot, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the garlic and crushed red pepper for 1 minute. Stir in the broccoli, chicken broth, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the drained pasta; cook over low heat for 1 minute. Stir in the Parmesan cheese.

This dish was a disaster! The broccoli was burnt and the rotini was undercooked. The sauce was watery and tasteless. I would not recommend this dish to anyone.

I tried this dish and it was just okay. The broccoli was a bit too crunchy and the rotini was a bit too soft. The sauce was also a bit bland. I wouldn't make this dish again.
