Boil fusilli pasta in a large pot of salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving half a cup of pasta water.

In a steamer or microwave safe bowl, steam the broccoli florets until they are tender yet crunchy.

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic, sauté until fragrant.

Lower the heat, add ricotta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes to the saucepan, stirring until the mixture is smooth.

Season the ricotta cheese mixture with salt and pepper.

Add the cooked fusilli pasta and steamed broccoli to the ricotta sauce. Stir well, adding some of the reserved pasta water if necessary to help the sauce coat the pasta.

Check the seasoning, adjusting if necessary.

Serve the pasta immediately, topped generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
