Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti according to package directions, adding broccoli to the pasta water during the last 20 seconds of cooking.

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season chicken on all sides with salt and pepper and cook, browning well, for about 10 minutes. Drain pasta and broccoli, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.

Add the onion and garlic to the chicken and cook a few minutes until fragrant. Add tomatoes, oregano, olives, and reserved pasta water. Simmer for a few minutes to reduce and thicken slightly. Mix in the pesto.

Divide the pasta evenly among 4 plates or bowls and top with chicken mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
