Cavatelli and Broccoli with Chicken image

This is a quick dish that is a convienent " meal in a casserole"... which I love!Funny thing is, the picture on the bag of frozen pasta looks like the dish has sauteed pignoli nuts and for years I've made it that way.However,I have since realized that it was sauteed garlic! I now make it with chicken, olives and broccoli without...
