Steps:
- Cook the rapini in boiling salted water for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain.
- In a saucepan, heat 4 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Add the garlic and chili peppers, and cook until the garlic is golden brown. Add the rapini to the saucepan, and saute for a few minutes. Season with salt to taste.
- In another saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and add the sausages. Cook the sausage for a few minutes, turning frequently, before piercing with a knife in order to release some of the fat. If the sausages are sticking to the pan, add a few tablespoons of water instead of adding more oil. Continue cooking until the sausages are golden brown and fully cooked.
- Add the cooked sausages to the rapini, and cook together for a few minutes. Transfer the mixture to a warm plate and serve hot.
ZITI WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI
A nice meal made entirely on the stovetop. The kids liked it except that they thought the meat was a little spicy, so use less if cooking for the smalls. I use Bob Evans Italian sausage Instead of the Italian link sausage the recipe calls for. From Southern Living.

PASTA WITH BROCCOLI RABE (CIMA DI RAPA)
This is a very popular winter dish in Italy. Broccoli rabe is sauteed then tossed with anchovies, garlic, bread crumbs and grated Pecorino Siciliano cheese. This version was given to me by a Sicilian friend. Enjoy with a nice hearty red wine and you'll be ready for any winter weather! Garnish with a little more bread crumbs and grated cheese.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook tortiglioni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add anchovies and garlic. Saute until slightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes, but do not overcook garlic, as this will make the dish bitter. Add broccoli rabe and stir to coat. Alternately add 1/2 of the bread crumbs and 1/2 of the Pecorino Siciliano cheese, stirring constantly, adding 1/2 tablespoon oil while mixing.
- Drain pasta and fold into the mixture, taking care not to break the pasta. Fold in remaining cheese and bread crumbs gently. Top with remaining oil. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with red pepper.

Steps:
- Grill or broil the sausage in advance. When cooled, slice it thin and set aside. Wash and drain the broccoli di rape and set it aside. In a large pot, put 10 quarts water on to boil, with 3 tablespoons coarse salt added, and immediately start preparing the sauce. Add the ziti to the pot when the water boils and cook until al dente. In a large, deep, heavy skillet with a fitted lid, heat the olive oil, add the garlic, and saute, uncovered, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli di rape, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper flakes, cover, and stream 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the sausage. Add the butter and chicken stock, and cook over high heat, uncovered, about 3 minutes, until the liquids are slightly reduced. Add the drained pasta to the sauce and toss gently. Sprinkle on 1/2 of the cheese, toss again, serve immediately, and distribute the remaining cheese over the pasta.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh broccoli di rape, sausage, and garlic will give your dish the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the broccoli di rape. It should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
- Use a good quality sausage. A spicy Italian sausage will give your dish a lot of flavor.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings. Add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes to taste.
- Serve immediately. This dish is best eaten fresh out of the pan.
