21 Day Fix Pasta with Broccoli & Chicken
Sausage
(recipe from carrieelle.com)
Ingredients:
•
1 small
head of broccoli
•
1 9oz package
of fresh pasta (I used Fusilli)
•
1 small
onion, diced
•
1 package
of sweet Italian chicken sausages, sliced into rounds
•
2 cloves of
garlic, minced
•
1/4 cup of
grated Parmesan cheese
•
1/4 cup of
fresh parsley, chopped
•
Himalayan
pink salt (or sea salt) to taste
•
Freshly
ground black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
Chop the
broccoli into florets and steam for 3-5 minutes until vibrant
green but not mushy. Remove from the pot and set aside.
Fill the
same pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook the pasta according to
the package directions. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile
dice the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the chicken sausage
into small rounds.
Heat the
olive oil in a large skillet over a medium heat.
Add the
onion and cook for 5 minutes until translucent.
Add the
chicken sausage and cook for 6 minutes, stirring halfway through
to flit the sausage so it browns on each side.
Add the
garlic and the steamed broccoli to the pan. Cook for 1 minute
until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Add the
cooked pasta.
Top with
grated Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped parsley. Season
with salt and pepper according to your taste.
