- While the noodles are doing their thing. Heat the oil in a large saute pan and add in the garlic. Saute until the garlic becomes fragrant.
- While the garlic is cooking, add all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl and whisk until well combined.
- When the noodles are finished cooking, add them to the heated garlic.
- Add in the broccoli and the sauce and stir everything over low heat for a minute or two to heat.
