Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Salt for pasta water
2 pounds broccoli rabe (weight includes central stems)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound dried or 1 1/2 pounds fresh or ecchiette, or other pasta, like penne
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, more for serving
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In large pot, bring 4 quarts of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cut broccoli rabe flowers and leaves away from large central stems. Chop flowers, leaves and smaller stems coarsely, and discard large stems.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped garlic. Once it starts to sizzle, increase the heat to high, and stir in the broccoli rabe. Stir until the greens have completely wilted, about 5 minutes.
  • Add pasta to boiling water, and cook until al dente. Drain pasta, and return it to pot. Pour cooked greens, remaining olive oil and cheese over pasta, and toss quickly. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve immediately. Pass extra grated Parmesan cheese at the table.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The bitterness of the broccoli rabe is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the garlic and the heat of the chili flakes.

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the orecchiette pasta and the broccoli rabe is hidden in the sauce. It's a sneaky way to get them to eat their veggies!

This dish is a great way to use up leftover broccoli rabe. I always have some leftover broccoli rabe after I make a big batch of soup, and this is a great way to use it up. It's also a very affordable dish to make.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less olive oil next time.

I found this dish to be a bit bland. The broccoli rabe was not very flavorful and the sauce was lacking in depth. I think I'll try adding some more garlic and chili flakes next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said the broccoli rabe was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I think next time I'll use less chili flakes.
