   1       t            Dried basil

  Heat the oil in a large saucepan over moderate heat. Add the garlic; as
  soon as it sizzles, add the broccoli and saute, stirring continuously,
  until it turns dark green, about 1 minute.
  Add the broth and wine and bring to a boil. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes
  and herbs, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the broccoli is
  tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
  Spoon over freshly cooked pasta and season with black pepper to taste.
  Note 1: to make reduced chicken broth, briskly boil 2 cups of the broth of
  your choice until it evaporates down to 1 cup (about 15 minutes)
  Note 2: Be sure to use sun-dried tomatoes packaged without oil
