What a delicious way to eat broccoli! While very simple to make,
the flavors are complex and powerful.
Ingredients
12 ounces (340g) penne pasta, uncooked
5 cloves garlic, sliced
12 ounces (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.
