A quick and tasty pasta salad that can be served warm or cold.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package linguine pasta
1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces
1/4 cup olive oil
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup finely shredded romano cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
salt to taste
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain and return to pot.
2. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir garlic and red pepper flakes until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 3 minutes. Add garlic mixture and broccoli to linguine; gently toss to coat. Add Romano cheese, parsley, black pepper, and salt; toss to combine.
