Ingredients
- 1 pound fregola sarda
- salt sea salt
- 3/4 pound broccolini
- extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice fresh
- 2 garlic crushed, cloves
- 1 cannellini beans drained and rinsed, 15.5 ounce can
- 1/4 cup pine nuts
- lemon zest
- 1/2 cup basil chopped or torn if large, fresh, loosely packed leaves
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Get Ready. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Fill a large pot with 4 quarts of water. Bring to a rolling boil.
- Cook the fregola sarda. Once the water is boiling, add about 1 1/2 tablespoons sea salt, then the pasta, and cook to al dente, about 10 minutes.
- Roast the broccolini. Arrange the broccolini in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle evenly with about a tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for until the tips have developed a golden brown color, about 12 minutes. The stems should remain bright green and slightly firm.
- Season the fregola sarda. While the broccolini is roasting, drain and return the pasta to the pot over low heat. Mix in about 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and beans. Stir gently, just until warmed through.
- Finish and serve. Transfer the fregola sarda to a large platter or serving dish. Top the pasta with the broccolini. Sprinkle with pine nuts, lemon zest, basil, Parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of olive oil.
