Angel Hair Pasta with Stir-Fried Broccoli

  • 1 pound angel hair pasta
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic -- finely chopped
  • 1 head broccoli, separated into flowerets
  • 2 red bell pepper -- diced
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese -- grated
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • salt and pepper -- to taste
  • Parmesan cheese -- for serving





Cook the pasta according to package in boiling, salted water for 4 to 6 minutes, or until just tender. Drain the pasta and toss it with 1 tablespoon of the oil to keep it from sticking together, then keep it warm.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet. Add the garlic and saute it lightly; do not brown. Add the broccoli flowerets and peppers, and saute over medium heat until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the skillet.
Add the cream to the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until it starts to thicken, about 5 minutes. Add the Parmesan cheese and nutmeg, and cook an additional 2 minutes to thicken it a bit more. Add vegetables and the cooked pasta. Toss them together well. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately, with additional Parmesan on the side.
Broccoli and pasta recipe serves 8.
