One Pot Chicken and Broccoli Pasta

• porzioni: 4 servings
• tempo di preparazione: 5 minutes
• tempo totale: 30 minutes

Ingredienti

2 chicken breasts (cut into bite-size strips/pieces)

1 tablespoon olive oil

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

1 ½ cups chicken broth

2 cups half-and-half

3 cups uncooked fusilli pasta

2 cups broccoli florets (cut small)

Salt & pepper (to taste)

Freshly grated parmesan cheese (for serving, optional, to taste)

Istruzioni

Add the chicken to a Dutch oven or soup pot along with the olive oil. Give it a good stir and sauté over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes.

Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, chicken broth, half-and-half, and pasta to the pot. Increase the heat to high and bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium (or medium-low if it is still bubbling a lot). Let it simmer for 8 minutes, giving it the occasional stir so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.

Add the broccoli to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and cook for 4-5 minutes.

Season the pasta generously with salt & pepper. If the broccoli is still too crisp, cook it for another couple of minutes. Serve immediately with freshly grated parmesan.
