Creamy Chicken & Broccoli Tortellini with Garlic Parmesan Sauce

4. **Add Tortellini & Simmer**
Add tortellini to the skillet and cook according to package instructions (usually 5–7 minutes), stirring occasionally so it doesn’t stick. Stir in Parmesan cheese until sauce is creamy and smooth.

5. **Combine Everything**
Add the cooked chicken and broccoli back to the skillet, tossing gently to coat everything in the sauce. Simmer for another 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.

6. **Garnish & Serve**
Finish with fresh parsley or basil, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and crushed red pepper flakes if you like a little heat. Serve warm and enjoy every creamy bite.
