What a delicious way to eat broccoli! While very simple to make, the flavors are complex and powerful.

Preparation facts

Servings: 6

Yield: 10 cups (2.4L)

Ingredients

12 oz (340g) penne pasta, uncooked

5 cloves garlic, sliced

12 oz (340g) Italian sausage, in bulk (removed from casing)

3 cups (345g) broccoli florets

1 cup (240mL) water

Parmesan cheese

Directions

Cook penne pasta in rapidly boiling water until done. Drain and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add garlic and sauté until the garlic turns brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Brown sausage in the same pan and cook until done through, about 10 minutes.

Add broccoli and water to the pan and cook for 5 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally. The sausage will be crumbly and mixed in with the broccoli.

Transfer penne to skillet and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to thoroughly combine ingredients.

Top with the crisp garlic bits and serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
