SPAGHETTI WITH BROCCOLI RABE, TOASTED GARLIC AND BREAD CRUMBS



Spaghetti With Broccoli Rabe, Toasted Garlic and Bread Crumbs image

Broccoli rabe can take whatever you throw at it and still shine. Its mild but distinctive bitterness dominates almost anything you cook it with - but what's wrong with that? So a pasta sauce that features it teamed with garlic and chili flakes is a natural. Add bread crumbs for crunch and the dish is a real winner. You can use the same pot for cooking the broccoli and the pasta; you can use the same skillet for toasting the bread crumbs and finishing the dish. The whole thing will be done within 20 or 30 minutes, and it will showcase broccoli rabe beautifully, as it deserves.

Salt
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, more as needed

Categories     Garlic     Pasta     Broccoli Rabe

Yield Makes 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large head of garlic, separated into cloves
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for drizzling
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
8 ounces corkscrew or gemelli pasta
1 pound broccoli rabe, lower coarse stems discarded and remainder cut crosswise into 2-inch strips
Accompaniment: grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Stir in the red pepper and remove the pan from the heat (the garlic will continue to cook in the residual heat).
  • Add the pasta to the boiling salted water and cook it, stirring once or twice in the beginning, according to the package instructions. About 4 to 5 minutes before the pasta is done (depending on how tender your broccoli rabe is), stir in the broccoli rabe and continue to boil the mixture, uncovered, until the pasta is al dente and the broccoli rabe is tender.

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.
