Directions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add broccoli florets and cook until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
-
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked broccoli to a large bowl and set aside.
-
Add fusilli pasta to the same boiling water. Cook until just tender but still firm to the bite (al dente).
-
Drain the pasta well and return it to the pot or transfer to the bowl with the broccoli.
-
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat.

Add chopped garlic and chicken strips to the skillet. Sauté until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
-
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken and garlic to the bowl with the pasta and broccoli.
-
Pour white wine, chicken broth, and whipping cream into the hot skillet. Bring to a boil and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 8 minutes.
-
Add the drained pasta, broccoli, chicken, and grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet with the sauce.
-
Toss everything together over low heat until the mixture is heated through and evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
-
Serve immediately while hot.
