Ingredients
- 1 pound tagliatelle pasta
- 1 head broccoli, cut into small florets
- 1/4 c extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 lemon, zested
- to taste salt and freshly ground pepper
- garnish grated parmesan cheese; (vegan option: Violife Parmesan)
Instructions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tagliatelle pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender and begins to caramelize, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 3
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet with the broccoli, cooking until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Step 4
Stir in the lemon zest and season with salt and black pepper.
Step 5
Add the drained tagliatelle to the skillet with the broccoli mixture. Toss to combine, adding a splash of the reserved pasta water to help the sauce cling to the pasta.
Step 6
Serve the pasta hot, drizzled with additional olive oil and sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese.<br><br>
