Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces orecchiette (ear-shaped pasta)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 bunch (about 1 1/2 pounds) broccoli stalks, peeled and trimmed, stalks and florets, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally to keep the pasta from sticking, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Set pasta aside.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; saute until golden, stirring to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Add broccoli and reserved cooking liquid; cook, stirring, until broccoli is tender and bright green, about 3 minutes. Add the salt, and season with pepper. Remove from heat.
  • Add reserved pasta to pan, and toss well to coat. Transfer to four serving bowls; drizzle each with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, and garnish each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons grated pecorino cheese.

Not a fan of this dish. The orecchiette was overcooked and the broccoli was mushy. The sauce was bland.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The orecchiette was cooked well, but the broccoli was a bit overcooked. The sauce was lacking in flavor. I would not recommend this dish.
