Spicy Lemon Pepper Pasta with Broccoli

Servings: 1   Time:

Ingredients:

• fettucini
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 1/2 cups fresh broccoli florets
• 1/4 cup sliced sundried tomatoes (oil packed)
• 1/2 tsp hot red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
• 1-2 pinches kosher salt, or to taste
• black pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Cook pasta as directed on packaging in well-salted water.
2. Meanwhile, chop the broccoli florets into small pieces and slice the tomatoes.
3. When pasta is nearly done, heat a wok over medium-high heat until it's quite hot. Add oil and broccoli and toss to coat, adding more oil as needed. 
4. After 1-2 minutes, add tomatoes and pepper flakes.
5. Let cook for another 2 minutes undisturbed, then toss. Repeat until colour is even throughout vegetables and broccoli is a bright green and tender.
6. Drain pasta and add to the wok, adding just enough oil to coat the pasta, if needed.
7. Add lemon juice and salt to taste.
8. Plate and grind fresh black pepper and serve immediately.

Notes:

• Makes for nice room temperature pasta so would be good for picnics, work, etc.
