2 cups broccoli florets, blanched
1 small zucchini, thinly sliced and blanched
1 teaspoon salt
1 pound orecchiette
1 medium tomato, chopped
1/4 cup grated pecorino Romano cheese

In a large saut� pan, heat the olive oil over medium. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper cooking until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken and saut� until brown. Add broccoli, zucchini and salt; cook until tender and brown, about five minutes. Set aside.

In a large pot of boiling water cook the orecchiette until al dente. Prior to draining the pasta, take 1/4 cup of the hot water and add it to the sauce along with the tomato.
