Linguine With Garlic Broccoli Sauce Recipe

3 tbsp olive oil
8 medium garlic cloves, minced
fresh ground pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried thyme
2 cup broccoli florets
2 tbsp pine nuts, toasted
1 lb uncooked linguine
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the garlic and
pepper, saut?ing for 5 minutes. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Reduce
the heat and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the oregano, basil and thyme.
In a large pot of boiling water, add the broccoli florets and then turn off
the heat. Immediately rinse the broccoli under cold running water to stop
the cooking process. (This method of blanching helps the broccoli to retain
its bright green color and crispness.) Add the broccoli to the wine sauce
and heat 2 more minutes. Prepare the linguine according to package
directions (without adding salt) and drain. Transfer the linguine to a
large serving bowl and pour the wine sauce over the top. Sprinkle with
Parmesan cheese to serve.
