Skillet Broccoli Spaghetti Recipes

Steps:

• Add the broccoli florets to a large pot of boiling, salted water and cook until al dente, 3 to 4 minutes. Prepare a bowl of ice water. Remove the florets from the pot, reserving the cooking water. Stop the cooking process by shocking them in the ice water. Remove the florets and pat dry.
• Add the spaghetti in the same pot of water. Cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the oil, sliced broccoli stems, red pepper flakes and garlic to a large skillet over medium-low heat and sprinkle with salt. Cook until the garlic is lightly toasted and fragrant, about 8 minutes. Add the florets, toss to coat and warm through.
• Drain the pasta in a colander set in the sink, and add the pasta to the skillet. Increase the heat to medium-high. Toss the ingredients and adjust the seasoning if needed. Transfer the pasta to a large serving bowl. Squeeze the lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serve.

Steps:

• Chop the broccoli fine and add it to a sauce pan.
• Add garlic, olive oil, pepper and the water and bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 30 minutes.
• Break up the broccoli as it cooks so that the end result is a mushy, slightly chunky green sauce.
• You may need to add more water or oil to keep it at a 'wet', pourable consistency if the liquid evaporates too quickly. You basically want it to be the thickness of a tomato pasta sauce. Add salt to taste; I only add the salt at the end, because if you do so earlier on, the saltiness may become more intense when the mixture reduces.
• Serve over cooked spaghetti. Sprinkle with parm if desired.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Mix water, tomato juice, tomato paste, minced onion, chili powder, sugar, oregano, garlic salt, and salt into ground beef; cover skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer beef mixture, stirring occasionally, until flavors have blended, about 30 minutes.
• Place spaghetti into beef mixture and stir to separate strands; cover skillet and simmer, stirring frequently, until spaghetti is tender, about 30 minutes.
