Directions

1. Cook rigatoni in large pot of boiling salted water 10 minutes. Add broccoli and cook until pasta is tender but still firm and broccoli is crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Drain in a colander.
2. Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, cook chicken, bell pepper, and onion in olive oil over medium heat, stirring often, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sage and cook 30 seconds, stirring. Stir in wine, broth, and cream. Simmer 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toss pasta and broccoli with chicken and sauce. Add cheese, toss again, and serve.
