    03 Method
    • Step 1
      Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Cook pasta 3 minutes less than time according to package instructions. Add broccoli and continue cooking for the remaining 3 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
    • Step 2
      Meanwhile, toss chicken with flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, leaving excess flour in the bowl.
    • Step 3
      Cook chicken, stirring occasionally until browned on one or two sides, about 4 minutes. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
    • Step 4
      Wipe out skillet with a clean paper towel. Reduce heat to medium.
    • Step 5
      Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in the skillet. Add garlic, and cook stirring until fragrant, 30 to 90 seconds. Stir in the chicken and any juice from the plate.
    • Step 6
      Dust on the remaining flour from the bowl, and stir to combine. Add broth and stir until the flour is incorporated. Increase heat to high and bring to a simmer stirring often. Stir in milk, half and half, dijon and thyme, reduce heat to medium, stirring.
    • Step 7
      Simmer, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thick about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add 1 cup of parmesan. Stir until the sauce is smooth. Add pasta and broccoli, and stir until combined. Serve topped with additional parmesan.
