Yum! One of my favorite dishes is Chicken, Ziti and Broccoli (a very common offering in Italian restaurants around here) with the garlic oil sauce.

Yours looks fantastic, peep!

interesting qsis. 'round here, the traditional thing is cavatelli and broccoli aglio e olio. chicken is often one of those "add chicken for $x.xx" kinda things.



looks good, peep. this is a great, quick, vegetarian dish. good for not overheating the kitchen in summer, or meatless fridays during lent.
