Chicken & Broccoli Penne Pasta



A tasty and healthy pasta dish with soft chicken, bright broccoli, and salty Parmesan cheese. Great for a quick dinner during the week or a cozy dinner with friends and family.

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz penne pasta
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional

Instructions:

Follow the directions on the package to cook the penne pasta

Remove the water and set it aside

Warm up the olive oil in a big pan over medium-low heat

It will take about 5 to 7 minutes of cooking after adding the diced chicken until the chicken is no longer pink

Put broccoli florets and minced garlic into the pan

Add the broccoli and cook for three to four more minutes, until it's soft

Using red pepper flakes if using, salt, pepper, and cooked penne pasta should all be mixed in

Keep cooking for two to three minutes more, until everything is hot

Serve hot, and if you want, top with extra Parmesan cheese
