Chicken Breast and Broccoli Pasta

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.

3. 3

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Add the chicken pieces to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.

5. 5

   While the chicken is cooking, cut the broccoli into small florets. Steam the broccoli for about 5 minutes, or until tender but still crisp.

6. 6

   Add the cooked pasta and steamed broccoli to the skillet with the chicken. Toss everything together to combine.

7. 7

   Grate the Parmesan cheese and sprinkle it over the pasta. Toss again to evenly distribute the cheese.

   Serve the Chicken Breast and Broccoli Pasta hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
