Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 16-ounce package wide egg noodles
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
8 cups broccoli florets (from about 4 large stalks)
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup purchased pesto

Steps:

  • Cook noodles in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain noodles, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid.
  • Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and dried red pepper and sauté until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli and 1/4 cup reserved noodle cooking liquid. Cover pot and cook until broccoli is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add noodles, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and pesto. Toss until noodles are evenly coated, adding remaining reserved liquid by tablespoonfuls if mixture is dry. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover broccoli. I added some chicken to mine and it was a complete meal. The pesto is really good, too.
