Rotelle with Smoked Turkey, Broccoli and Peppers
Cook broccoli in large pot of boiling salted water until criisp-tender,
about 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer broccoli to bowl of ice
water to cool; reserve water in pot. Drain broccoli and pat dry. Return
water to boil. Add pasta and cook until just tender but still firm to
bite, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Drain thoroughly.
Meanwhile, melt butter with olive oil in heavy large skillet over low heat.
Add garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until garlic is tender, about 3
minutes. Add turkey and saute until heated through about 4 minutes.
Mix broccoli, pasta, roasted peppers and stock into turkey mixture.
Increase heat to high and cook until pasta has absorbed most of liquid,
stirring frequently, about 4 minutes. Divide pasta between plates and
serve, passing Romano cheese separately. 2 servings.
Enjoy!
