Servings: persons

1 pound spaghetti (or your favorite pasta)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup water
2 cups sliced broccoli florets and stems (about 1/4 pound)
4 ounces sliced spiral ham, cut into 1/4-inch squares (or thin slices if you prefer)
1/2 cup reserved pasta water
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for grating

1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook just until al dente. While the pasta cooks, prepare the rest of the recipe. (Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water before straining.)
2
Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan (at least 10 inches), over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute just until fragrant and starting to soften, about 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer the liquid to reduce by a little more than half.
3
Add the 1/4 cup of water and the broccoli pieces. Cover the pan and let the broccoli cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it is fork tender. Add the ham and toss to combine.
4
Strain the pasta and immediately add it and the reserved pasta water to the saute pan. Increase the heat to medium-high and toss the pasta with the garlic, broccoli and ham. Simmer for 30 second or so, just until the liquid reduces and thickens a little bit. Season with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper.
5
Serve with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano and a drizzle of olive oil.
