Best 10 Perciatelli With Broccoli Tomatoes And Anchovies Recipes

PERCIATELLI WITH BROCCOLI, TOMATOES AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Place the raisins in a small bowl and cover with warm water. Let sit for 20 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add the baby broccoli. Blanch for 4 minutes and, using a skimmer or tongs, transfer to a bowl of cold water. Drain and shake out excess water. If the stems are thick and hard, peel. Chop coarsely.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until it smells fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute, and add the anchovies, thyme and tomatoes. Turn the heat down to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant, about 10 minutes. Stir in the olives. Drain the raisins or currants and add, along with the broccoli and about 1/4 cup of the cooking water from the broccoli. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover, turn the heat to low and simmer 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is very tender and the sauce is fragrant. Keep warm while you cook the pasta.
• Bring the water back to a boil and cook the pasta al dente, following the timing instructions on the package. Check the sauce and if it seems dry add another 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water. Drain the pasta and transfer to the pan with the sauce. Toss together and serve, sprinkled with pecorino or Parmesan. If desired, drizzle a little olive oil over each serving.

• Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan, add the anchovies and chillies and fry briefly. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes until the crumbs are crunchy and golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice tomatoes and place half of the slices in a single layer on the bottom of a baking dish. Add 2 to 3 anchovies on top of each tomato slice. Top each tomato slice with another tomato slice, making a sandwich out of the anchovies. Season with crushed red pepper and olive oil. Bake 20 minutes.
• Cook pasta.
• Drain pasta and mix with tomato and anchovy mixture in a large pasta bowl. Toss with spoons to break up the tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley and fresh Parmesan, to taste.

LEMONY BROCCOLI WITH ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Chop 1 bunch broccoli into florets; peel and slice the stems. Cook in 1 to 2 inches salted boiling water until tender, 5 minutes. Drain. Cook 1 clove chopped garlic, 3 to 5 minced anchovy fillets and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a skillet with 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat, 30 seconds. Add the broccoli, the juice of 1/2 lemon and salt. Drizzle with olive oil.

PERCIATELLI WITH TOMATO AND PROSCIUTTO SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat.
• Drain the tomatoes and reserve the juice. Cut the tomatoes in quarters lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and cores. Stir the perciatelli into the boiling water. Return to a boil, stirring frequently. Cook the pasta, semi-covered, stirring occasionally, until done, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large, heavy skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and bay leaves and cook until the onion is wilted but still crunchy, about 4 minutes. Add the prosciutto and stir 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, about 1 cup of the reserved liquid, and the crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat so the sauce is at a lively simmer, and cook until the pasta is done.
• Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta-cooking liquid, then drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Add half the sauce and the remaining olive oil. Stir until the sauce is bubbling and the pasta is coated. If necessary, add as much of the reserved pasta-cooking liquid as needed to make enough sauce to coat the pasta lightly but evenly. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the grated cheese. Transfer the pasta to a heated platter or serving bowls and top with the remaining sauce.

Mix in tomatoes with their juices and white wine. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add tuna and parsley and mix to break up large tuna chunks.
• Drain pasta. Add to sauce and toss to blend. Season to taste with pepper.

BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC AND ANCHOVIES

• Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium until hot but not smoking. Add broccoli (in a single layer, if possible), and cook, without turning, until bottom sides are nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add garlic and anchovies, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper; flip broccoli pieces. Cook, stirring, until garlic and anchovies are fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the water, and continue cooking until broccoli is just tender (the stalk should provide little resistance when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife), 5 to 6 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Season with more pepper, and add vinegar to pan, stirring to coat broccoli. Serve hot.

PERCIATELLI WITH CAULIFLOWER IN SPICY TOMATO SAUCE
