Description
A creamy, savory pasta dish featuring shredded rotisserie chicken, tender broccoli, and al dente pasta, all brought together with garlic and Parmesan.
Ingredients
- 8 oz pasta of choice (about 225 g)
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep and cook the pasta: Shred the rotisserie chicken, mince the garlic, and trim the broccoli into bite-size florets. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
- Sauté the garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Steam the broccoli: Add the broccoli florets and chicken broth to the skillet, then cover and steam for about 5 minutes until tender.
- Warm the chicken: Stir in the shredded chicken until heated through (about 1–2 minutes).
- Combine and finish: Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing gently until mixed well. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan, season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.
Notes
Use a large skillet for even heating. Adjust seasoning after adding Parmesan as cheese can be salty.
