Kosher salt as needed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large broccoli head - (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 lbs) stems removed, and florets trimmed to 2" long with a
stem abt 1/2" thick - (4 to 5 cups)
1 quart chicken stock (preferably homemade)
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes - (to 2) or to taste
1/2 pound fresh capellini
1 cup freshly-grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Cover and cook until the florets are crisp but tender, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock and pepper flakes. Add the capellini to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the pasta and add to the skillet with the broccoli and stock. Stir in 1/2 cup of the cheese and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
