Instructions

  1. Cook the cavatelli pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  4. Stir in the broccoli florets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.

  5. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.

  6. Sprinkle in the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.

  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.

  8. Add the cooked cavatelli pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce and ingredients.

  9. Allow the dish to cook for another 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
