If you've got to eat your broccoli, this is a great way to do it. A beautiful side dish of broccoli and angel hair pasta with red pepper flakes is so delicious and so aromatic.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ pounds broccoli
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup butter
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 cups chicken stock
salt to taste
1 pound angel hair pasta
½ cup freshly shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus a little more for garnish
1 pinch red pepper flakes for garnish, or to taste

Steps:

  • Hold a sharp knife at a 45-degree angle and cut the florets from the broccoli stems into a bowl. Chop remaining stems into small pieces and transfer stems to a separate bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil with butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook garlic in the hot oil-butter mixture, stirring often, until garlic is soft but not browned. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and salt. Pour chicken stock into skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir broccoli stems into the stock mixture and simmer until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add a little water or stock if mixture starts to dry out.
  • Stir broccoli florets into skillet and cook broccoli sauce until florets are bright green and slightly tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and stir in angel hair pasta. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta strands are almost tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large pot.
  • Pour broccoli sauce over pasta, stir with a wooden spoon, and mix in 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Cover pot with a lid and let stand until pasta absorbs excess liquid and finishes cooking, about 2 minutes.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH CHICKEN, BROCCOLI, PANCETTA RECIPE | SIP BITE GO



Angel Hair Pasta with Chicken, Broccoli, Pancetta Recipe | Sip Bite Go image

This "comfort food worthy" chicken pasta broccoli dish with pancetta is loaded with flavor and ready in ​​30 minutes. Make this angel hair pasta with chicken and broccoli recipe for an easy family style one pan dinner. Let's cook...

Provided by Jenna Passaro

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pieces chicken breasts
¼ tsp salt
⅛ tsp pepper (black)
3 tbsp Italian seasonings (dried)
1 tbsp olive oil
½ pound angel hair pasta
1 cup pancetta (diced)
1 cup broccoli (florets)
¼ cup white wine ((dry))
¾ cup cream
3 tbsp butter
¼ cup parmesan cheese (grated)
1 tbsp parsley (fresh chopped)
1 tbsp roasted red pepper (the kind marinated in the jar, diced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prep a large pot of salted water on the stove top, covered with a lid. You can bring the water to a boil now or wait until it's closer to time to cook the pasta.
  • Prep chicken breast. Assuming you're starting with full 3"thick chicken breasts, I recommend cutting them in half, lengthwise. Using thinner pieces of chicken helps them cook faster and evenly. You can also pound them thin to get a similar effect.
  • Season chicken. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and Italian seasonings all over chicken breast.
  • Sear chicken breasts. Place a large oven safe pan on the stove and set the burner to medium-high heat. Add olive oil and once hot, add the chicken breast. Sear each side for 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned.
  • Oven bake chicken. Transfer lightly seared chicken to the oven to bake at 400 degrees F until an internal reading meat thermometer indicates the chicken has reached a temperature of 165 degrees. In the Sip Bite Go video demonstration, this took about 10 minutes. Once done, remove cooked chicken breast from the pan (set it aside to rest 5-10 minutes on a cutting board) and wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.
  • Boil pasta. Add angel hair pasta to boiling water and cook until just under al dente (about 2 minutes less than the package recommends). Strain pasta, reserving ½ cup of pasta water. Do not rinse pasta in water or add olive oil.
  • Cook the pancetta. Add the large skillet pan back to a burner on medium high heat with the diced pancetta. Stir as it cooks for 2 minutes, then add in broccoli and cook while stirring for an additional 2-4 minutes minutes until the pancetta is fully cooked and the broccoli softens. During this time, slice the cooked chicken breast into smaller bite sized pieces or strips.
  • Make the light cream sauce for the chicken broccoli pasta. Add white wine to the pan with the pancetta and broccoli. Reduce the heat of the burner to medium-low and let the wine simmer for 1 minute. Add cream and butter, stirring regularly for 1 minute as the sauce thickens. Add in the angel hair pasta, reserved pasta water, and sliced chicken. Cook, stirring regularly, for about 2 minutes, until the sauce thickens to your liking.
  • Garnish and serve pasta with fresh chopped parsley, freshly grated parmesan cheese, and diced roasted red peppers.

BROCCOLI WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Broccoli With Angel Hair Pasta image

This is a fast, easy, and delicious dish that I created during a sudden craving. It's garlicky and a bit spicy- but can be easily altered to be more or less of either. To make into a vegan dish, simply omit the parmesan cheese.
