While the water for the pasta is heating, chop the ingredients. Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente. Add the broccoli florets for the last 4 minutes of cooking. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan over low heat. Sauté the anchovies, chili pepper, garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes. Pour in the broth and simmer everything over low heat (!) for a few minutes. Use only enough broth to keep it from becoming soupy. You only want a little liquid. It’s better to use a little more olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Drain the pasta and broccoli and add them to the pan with 1-2 tablespoons of the cooking water to the oil mixture, and mix everything gently. Serve with freshly ground pepper and sliced ​​(not chopped) parsley. If desired, you can also drizzle fresh Pecorino cheese over the pasta.
