1
Sauté veggies. Heat butter in a large stockpot over medium-high heat.

Add onion and sauté for ⏱️ 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and sauté for ⏱️ 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cook the pasta. Add pasta, water, half and half, Dijon, crushed red pepper flakes, a generous pinch of salt and pepper and stir to combine. Bring the pasta to a boil, stirring occasionally to break up the pasta. Once the pasta reaches a boil, stir in the broccoli. Reduce heat to medium to maintain a low boil and continue cooking the pasta uncovered until it is just al dente.

Remove excess liquid (if needed). Check to see how much liquid remains in the pot. If it seems that there is more than ½ cup or so, dip a heatproof measuring cup in to remove and save the excess liquid, and set it to the side.
