    Cup of Yum
  1. In a pot or large saucepan with high sides, add the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the onion and sautee for a couple of minutes. Add the sausage. Brown and crumble the sausage. Add the garlic for the last 30 seconds of cooking.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, cream, rosemary, pasta, and broccoli (see note). Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes or until sauce thickens (mine thickens around 12 minutes). 
  4. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and add salt if needed. Serve immediately with additional grated Parmesan cheese on top.

Notes

  • If you like your broccoli a little more firm add the broccoli halfway during cooking. We like ours on the tender side.
