Cacio e Pepe + Roasted Chicken

In Italian, cacio e pepe literally translates to “cheese and pepper.” In tonight’s variation on the classic, we’ve swapped out traditional pasta in favor of cauliflower cavatappi and then cloaked it in a rich romano and Parmesan cream sauce dotted with smoked black pepper. It’s garnished with a mix of parsley and even more romano and black pepper, and served with herb-roasted chicken, roasted broccoli and cauliflower florets seasoned with garlic and chives.
