Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the diced chicken, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Broccoli and Garlic

    Add the broccoli florets and minced garlic to the skillet with the chicken. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is tender.

  4. 4

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Add the cooked penne pasta to the skillet, tossing to combine with the chicken, broccoli, and cream sauce. Serve hot with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
