Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F.  Fill a large pot with water and place over high heat.  Once boiling, add the pasta and cook according to package directions.  Just before draining, reserve about a cup of the hot pasta water.  Add drained pasta back into pot.

Step 2

Add chopped broccoli to a large sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil (1-2 tbsp) and sprinkle with salt (1/2 tsp) and pepper (1/2 tsp).  Toss everything together with your hands and make sure all the broccoli is coated.  Roast broccoli until tender and starting to brown, 15-20 mins.

Step 3

Right after you put the broccoli into the oven, make your sauce so it’s ready to pour on the pasta as soon as the hot pasta is added back to the pot.  To make the sauce, add the parmesan, olive oil, tamari, dried oregano, salt and pepper to a medium sized bowl and mix together well.  I usually just add a pinch or two of salt and pepper and then add more at the end after I’ve tasted the pasta.

Step 4

Pour the sauce over the hot pasta and mix well.  If you need to loosen up your sauce, just add a little bit of the reserved pasta water and mix again.  Add roasted broccoli, mix to combine, add extra salt and pepper if needed.  You can either add a big squeeze of fresh lemon to the entire pot, or serve individual portions with a slice of lemon so people can squeeze their own.  This is only if desired, you don’t have to add lemon!
