1 can (2 ounces) anchovies packed in oil, chopped, oil reserved

PASTA WITH SPICY SAUSAGE, BROCCOLI RABE AND CHICKPEAS



Pasta With Spicy Sausage, Broccoli Rabe and Chickpeas image

In this hearty weeknight pasta recipe, chickpeas contribute an earthy, nutty flavor to the classic combination of sausage and broccoli rabe. The addition of Parmesan, butter, and lemon juice just before serving balances the heat from the sausage with a bit of richness, creating a bright and flavorful sauce in the process. This pasta is incredibly versatile: You can use any sturdy greens or even broccoli in place of the broccoli rabe, and feel free to swap in whatever pasta shape and canned beans you have on hand. You can even substitute sweet Italian sausage or ground pork or turkey for the sausage in a pinch; add about 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes to give this dish its spicy kick.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 pounds broccoli rabe or broccoli, chopped, tough stems discarded, or hearty greens like kale or escarole
1 pound shaped pasta, such as campanelle or orecchiette
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound hot Italian sausage, casings removed, or sweet Italian sausage, ground pork or turkey
3 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1/2 cup dry white wine or chicken stock
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas or other white beans, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or pecorino, plus more for serving
1 lemon, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Roughly chop the broccoli rabe, add it to the pot, and cook for 3 minutes. Use a sieve or slotted spoon to lift the broccoli rabe from the water and place it in a colander to drain.
  • Bring the water back to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain pasta.
  • Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven or deep, 12-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. (Don't worry if the sausage is not completely cooked through.) Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the wine and cook, scraping any bits from the bottom of the pan, until the wine is reduced by half, about 1 minute.
  • Add the broccoli rabe, chickpeas, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the sausage is cooked through and the broccoli rabe is very tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the pasta and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water, toss well, and cook over low heat until the sauce comes together, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add additional pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, if needed for moisture.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, add the butter, Parmesan, lemon zest and lemon juice, and toss until the butter is melted. Divide pasta among shallow bowls and top with additional cheese sprinkled on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into uniform florets: This will help them roast evenly. Cut the broccoli into 1-inch florets, or smaller if desired.
  • Toss the broccoli and chickpeas in olive oil and seasonings: This will help them to brown and caramelize in the oven. Use a good quality olive oil and your favorite seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • Roast the broccoli and chickpeas at a high temperature: This will help them to get crispy and flavorful. Roast the broccoli and chickpeas at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and browned.
  • Serve the roasted broccoli and chickpeas immediately: They are best enjoyed when they are hot and crispy. Serve them as a side dish or main course, or add them to salads, wraps, or grain bowls.

Conclusion:

This roasted broccoli and chickpeas recipe is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy these nutritious vegetables. The broccoli is roasted until tender and crispy, while the chickpeas add a boost of protein and fiber. The dish is flavored with a simple blend of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. It is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, main course, or added to salads, wraps, or grain bowls.
