August 08, 2023

Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 4 cups farfalle pasta, uncooked
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp sesame oil (plus more if needed)
- Dragons Twilight (start light, build heat like a fireball)
For the Sauce:
- 1/3 cup + 2 tbsp coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
Optional Add-ins & Toppings:
- Cooked chicken, steak, or crispy tofu
- Sliced green onions
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
1. Cook the pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook farfalle until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Blanch the broccoli (optional but fancy)
Toss florets into boiling water for 2 minutes, then shock them in ice water to lock in color and crunch. Skip this if you like your broccoli with a bite.
3. Shake up the sauce
Add all sauce ingredients to a mason jar. Shake like you're angry at it. (Or whisk in a bowl if you're old school.)
4. Get things sizzling
Heat 2 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant and barely golden.
5. Broccoli time
Toss in broccoli and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes. Pour in ½ cup of the sauce and let it bubble and thicken for about 4 minutes. If things get sticky, a splash of water will loosen it up.
6. Bring the heat
Sprinkle a generous amount of Dragons Twilight over the skillet. Want just a flicker of heat? Start small. Want a 5-alarm flavor bomb? Go wild.
7. Pasta party
Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine. Let it all warm through, soaking up that bold sauce.
8. Garnish & devour
Top with extra Dragons Twilight, green onions, sesame seeds, and your protein of choice. Serve hot and get ready to breathe fire—in a good way.
