Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add your favorite pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually around 8 to 10 minutes. Once cooked, reserve about a cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta and set it aside in the pot to keep warm.

In the same pot, add a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to let the garlic burn.

Next, toss in the broccoli florets with the sautéed garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the broccoli is tender-crisp and bright green.

Reduce the heat to low and add the Boursin cheese directly into the pot with the broccoli. Stir the mixture for about 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese melts completely.

Carefully add the reserved pasta to the pot, gently folding it into the creamy Boursin cheese sauce and broccoli.

Finally, taste your Boursin Cheese Pasta with Broccoli for seasoning. Add salt and pepper as needed, and feel free to sprinkle in some red pepper flakes or fresh herbs for an extra kick.
