Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves finely minced
- 1 red chili pepper finely sliced (or 1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes)
- 10.58 oz orecchiette pasta
- 14 oz broccoli rabe (cime di rapa)
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the olive oil, sliced garlic and red chili pepper in a skillet over low heat, and cook until the garlic is golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the cime di rapa. Remove any tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Rinse them thoroughly under cold water.
- In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, add the orecchiette pasta and cook according to the package directions. For al dente pasta, drain it 2-3 minutes before the suggested cooking time. During the last 5 minutes of cooking time, add in the cime di rapa.
- Drain the pasta and cime di rapa, and add them to the skillet with the garlic and red chili pepper. Toss the ingredients to combine, drizzle with more extra-virgin olive oil, season with freshly-cracked black pepper and serve.
Notes
- Optional Ingredients:
- Anchovy fillets: add two anchovy fillets into the skillet with the garlic and red chili pepper for extra flavor.
- Breadcrumbs: add a delightful crunch to your orecchiette with broccoli rabe by generously sprinkling toasted breadcrumbs on top before serving.
