Serves/Makes: 4 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients:
1 bunch broccoli rabe, well rinsed, tough skin peeled, and chopped (keep flowers whole)
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 large cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 pound dry penne pasta
Directions:
In a large pot or steamer, steam the broccoli rabe until tender, 10-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain, reserving the cooking water.
Warm the olive oil in a nonreactive large skillet over med.-low heat. Add the garlic and saute until golden, 3 min. Add the broccoli rabe, 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking water, the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, warm a serving bowl in a 200 degrees F oven. Bring a large pot of water to a boil (using as much of the reserved broccoli water as remains). Add the penne and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta.
Remove the bowl from the oven, place the pasta in the bowl, and top with the broccoli mixture. Mix well and serve hot.
