Pasta and Broccoli

Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 lb frozen broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 dash salt
• fresh ground pepper
• 1/2 lb cooked pasta (I use spaghetti or linguini)
• parmesan cheese
• leftover cooked chicken, cut up (optional)

Directions

• 1 Put the olive oil in a large skillet and heat.
• 2 Add the minced garlic and cook slightly (do not brown the garlic).
• 3 Add the frozen broccoli and cook about 8 minutes stirring occasionally, adding a little water now and then to make steam so that the broccoli cooks.
• 4 If you are adding chicken, add it now.
• 5 Add butter, salt, pepper, and the cooked pasta.
• 6 Serve with Parmesan cheese at the table.
