Heating & Cooling

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a 3-qt casserole dish. Set aside.

Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain and set aside.

Melt the butter with the onion and garlic in a very large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5-8 minutes.

Add the cream cheese and stir until smooth. Whisk in the milk and chicken stock; stir until the mixture starts to thicken. Add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, nutmeg, chicken, and broccoli. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. When the mixture simmers, add the pasta and fold until well-coated.
