Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
3 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice
1/4 cup water
1 15-ounce can cannellini (white kidney beans), drained
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
8 ounces orecchiette (little ear-shaped pasta; about 2 cups) or medium pasta shells
1 pound broccoli crowns, separated into small florets (about 5 cups)
3 tablespoons freshly shaved Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and crushed red pepper; stir 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes with juices and 1/4 cup water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; boil gently until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Stir in beans and basil. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, cook orecchiette pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until almost tender, about 15 minutes. Add broccoli florets; cook until pasta is just tender but still firm to bite and broccoli florets are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes longer. Ladle out 1/2 cup pasta cooking water and reserve. Drain orecchiette and broccoli florets; return to pot.
  • Add tomato sauce and reserved pasta cooking water to pasta and toss to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer pasta to bowl. Sprinkle with cheese and serve.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but I really enjoyed this dish. The broccoli was roasted perfectly and the cannellini beans added a nice creaminess.
