Ingredients

2 skinned boneless chicken breasts (1 lb.)
2 large heads of broccoli
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 to 1 lb. whole wheat spaghetti (or your favorite)
Pecorino Romano cheese

Directions

Cut the broccoli into small florets and thinly slice the stalks (alternatively, use pre-bagged broccoli florets).
Saute broccoli in large pan with several tablespoons of olive oil and sesame oil (adjust to taste).
While broccoli is cooking, cube the chicken; add to pan.
While chicken and broccoli cook, prepare the pasta.
Cook over medium to medium-high heat until chicken and broccoli are both cooked and lightly browned (approx. 15-20 minutes total). Add oil as necessary to contribute to "glaze" on the meat and vegetables.
Serve over pasta with grated Pecorino Romano.
