For an extra layer of flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic as it cooks. Toasted pine nuts or breadcrumbs make a lovely textural addition. Ensure the garlic is cooked gently to prevent burning and bitterness. Use high-quality Parmesan cheese for the best flavor. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining. If the pasta seems dry after tossing with the sauce, add a little of the reserved water to create a creamier consistency.

01 Step
Recipe View Infuse the Oil: In a small skillet, gently warm the olive oil over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook slowly, stirring frequently, until it turns a delicate golden color and releases its fragrant aroma (2-3 minutes). Avoid burning the garlic, as this will make it bitter. Stir in the fresh lemon juice, season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, and set aside.
02 Step
Recipe View Cook Pasta and Broccoli: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the farfalle pasta and cook according to package directions. With approximately 5 minutes remaining in the pasta's cooking time, add the broccoli florets to the boiling water. Continue cooking until the pasta is al dente and the broccoli is crisp-tender. (8-10 minutes total)
03 Step
Recipe View Combine and Serve: Drain the pasta and broccoli thoroughly. In a large bowl, toss the hot pasta and broccoli with the lemon-garlic sauce. Sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and toss again to combine. Serve immediately, with extra Parmesan cheese on the side.
