FARFALLE WITH BROCCOLI

Giada De Laurentiis made this on her show and it looked soooo good! I could smell it through the tv! I have edited this recipe to cut the fat content and try to lighten the recipe. I think this should work better. EDITED: I made this for dinner tonight, but I had to make it with "corkscrew" pasta (DSS ate the bowties for a snack). I think it worked wonderfully...the ridges held the sauce nicely. This is a great dish and I will be making this often. The pepper does sneak up on you, so beware!! I also only used 3 anchovy fillets, which I found to be the perfect amount!! Adds a very nice depth to the dish.

Time 35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 ½ cups chicken broth
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 bunch broccoli rabe, trimmed
¼ cup butter
1 ½ cups grated Parmesan cheese
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the farfalle pasta, and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the Italian sausage until crumbly and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and continue cooking until the sausage begins to brown, about 5 minutes more. Pour off the excess grease, then pour in the chicken broth and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil over high heat, then add the broccoli rabe, and cover. Cook until the broccoli rabe is tender, about 4 minutes.
  • When the broccoli rabe is done, stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until the meat sauce has thickened. Toss with the farfalle and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh broccoli and ricotta cheese will give your pasta the best flavor.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the broccoli, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.

  • Serve immediately: This pasta is best served immediately after it is made.
