Pasta with Sausage and Broccoli Rabe image

Tips: Cook the broccoli rabe the night before and you'll be way ahead. Whatever you do, read the recipe through start to finish before you get started. It's a little out of the ordinary but relatively painless. Cook off the garlic and sausage up to one hour ahead and let it sit in the pan until you're ready to finish the dish.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound broccoli rabe, trimmed of damaged leaves
1 pound orecchiette or other pasta noodle
2 tablespoons water
4 to 5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 pound Italian sausage, cut into quarter-inch slices
Salt
1 cup coarse, seasoned bread crumbs, toasted, optional garnish
Pecorino Romano or Parmesan, optional garnish

Steps:

  • Cut the broccoli rabe into 3 to 4 inch pieces, discarding the stems. In a large pot of rapidly boiling water, blanch the broccoli rabe until tender and cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes. Before you drain broccoli rabe, reserve 1 cup of cooking liquid. Drain and rinse the broccoli rabe with cold water until it has cooled off. Spread it out on a towel to finish draining.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling water according to package directions until al dente.
  • While the pasta is cooking, place 2 tablespoons of water into a cold skillet with garlic and sausage and then turn heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is golden and sausage is cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Pour reserved broccoli water into pan with sausage.
  • When the pasta is cooked, drain it and place back in pot you cooked it in and season with salt. Pour sausage sauce over pasta and stir in cooked broccoli rabe. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.
  • If the Queen's coming to dinner: Garnish with fresh bread crumbs and/or freshly grated pecorino Romano or parmesan cheese.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta
1 pound hot Italian sausage links, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound broccoli rabe, cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup pasta boiling water
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink, reserving 1/2 cup of the water.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the sausage pieces, garlic, and red pepper flakes in the hot pan until the sausage is no longer pink on the outside, about 4 minutes. Stir in the broccoli rabe and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Pour in the reserved 1/2 cup of pasta boiling water. Cover, and cook until the sausage is no longer pink in the center and the broccoli rabe is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Stir the cooked pasta, broccoli rabe, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese together until evenly mixed. Season to taste with salt and pepper to serve.

Tips:

  • Select the right sausage: Choose a sausage with a flavor profile that complements the broccoli rabe. Italian sausage, such as sweet or hot, is a classic choice. You can also use chicken or turkey sausage for a lighter option.
  • Prepare the broccoli rabe properly: Trim the broccoli rabe by removing the tough stems. Chop the florets and leaves into bite-sized pieces. Wash the broccoli rabe thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Use a large pot: The sausage and broccoli rabe stoup will produce a lot of liquid, so it's important to use a large pot that can hold at least 6 quarts.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When adding the ingredients to the pot, don't overcrowd it. Otherwise, the vegetables will not cook evenly and the stoup will be too thick.
  • Season to taste: The amount of salt and pepper you add to the stoup will depend on your personal preference. Taste the stoup as it cooks and adjust the seasonings accordingly.

Conclusion:

Sausage and broccoli rabe stoup is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
