Cheese Tortellini with Broccoli, Tomatoes, & Garlic

Ingredients:
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 lb broccoli stalks, removed, heads cut into small florets
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 1/2 lb frozen cheese tortellini
3 plum tomatoes, seeded & diced

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil
Heat 1 Tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat
Add broccoli & garlic; season with salt & pepper
Cook, tossing occasionally, until broccoli is crisp-tender, 6 - 8 mins (if skillet gets too dry, add a little water)
Cook tortellini in boiling water until al dente
Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water; return tortellini to pot
Add broccoli mixture, tomatoes, & remaining 2 Tbsp butter; season with salt & pepper, & toss gently to combine
Gradually add enough reserved pasta water to create a sauce that lightly coats tortellini
Serve immediately
