Penne With Chorizo Broccoli Recipes

PENNE WITH CHORIZO & BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Cook the penne following pack instructions, adding the broccoli for the final 3 mins. When cooked, drain, reserving a splash of the cooking water.

When the penne is cooked, tip it into the pan with the chorizo. Add the cream cheese, stir together until melted, adding a splash of the reserved cooking water so the sauce coats the pasta.
• Serve in bowls, scattered with a few rocket leaves and some grated Parmesan, if you like.
