Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound gemelli or other corkscrew pasta
1 (1-pound) bunch broccoli rabe, coarse stems discarded and remainder cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces
1 cup panko (Japanese crisp bread crumbs)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 (2-ounce) can flat anchovy fillets, drained
1/2 teaspoon dried hot red-pepper flakes, or to taste

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cook pasta in a 7- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water 6 minutes, then stir in broccoli rabe and boil until pasta is al dente, about 5 minutes more.
  • While pasta is cooking, toss panko with 1 tablespoon oil in a shallow baking pan until coated and bake, stirring once or twice, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Season crumbs with salt.
  • While broccoli rabe (with pasta) is cooking, cook garlic, anchovies, and red-pepper flakes in remaining 7 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring and mashing anchovies into oil with a wooden spoon, until garlic is golden, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Drain pasta and broccoli rabe in a colander, then add to anchovy mixture in skillet, tossing to combine.
  • Serve pasta sprinkled with some toasted panko and pass remainder.

I wasn't a fan of the broccoli rabe in this dish. I think it would be better with spinach or kale.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but it was still good. I would recommend using less anchovies next time.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover broccoli rabe.

This recipe was easy to follow and the dish turned out great! I used whole wheat pasta and it was still delicious.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The flavors of the broccoli rabe, anchovies, and garlic were perfectly balanced, and the pasta was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again soon.
