Step 1

Measure out all ingredients prior to beginning. (This is called “mise en place” and is a good idea for quick recipes.)

Step 2

Melt butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the chicken broth, half and half, and seasonings.

Step 4

Bring to a boil and add the pasta. Submerge the pasta into the liquid and let it return to a boil. Cook partially covered according to package instructions. Add the broccoli during the last 5 minutes. Run a silicone spatula along the bottom of the pan occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to it.

Step 5

Remove cover taste-test a pasta noodle for doneness before proceeding. If needed, cover and cook longer, until your desired doneness is obtained.

Step 6

Remove from heat. Add the lemon juice and use a silicone spatula to gently mix in the Parmesan cheese.

Step 7

Sauce will continue to thicken upon standing. Garnish with parsley and serve with garlic bread with cheese.
