Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 bunch broccoli rabe, trimmed (about 1 pound)
4 sweet and/or hot Italian sausage links (about 14 ounces total)
10 ounces mezzi rigatoni (about 4 cups)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
Grated parmesan cheese, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, the garlic, lemon zest, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; set aside.
  • Toss the broccoli rabe with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and a big pinch of salt; spread out in a grill basket. Transfer to the grill along with the sausages. Cook, turning occasionally, until both are well marked and the sausages are cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
  • Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook as the label directs for al dente. Meanwhile, roughly chop the broccoli rabe. Halve the sausages lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Cover and keep warm.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and add to the bowl with the garlic oil. Add the broccoli rabe, sausages and 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking water; toss well to coat. If the pasta is too dry, add more cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt. Divide among bowls and top with the oregano and parmesan.

Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 15 to 20 appetizer portions or 8 full portions

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups olive oil
1 bunch basil, leaves only
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus a pinch
5 cloves garlic
2 pounds thinly sliced chicken breast
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 pounds sausage, sweet or spicy
1 bunch broccoli rabe
3 portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 cup chicken stock
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 loaf Italian bread
1 bunch arugula, leaves only
10 grape tomatoes, halved
Provolone slices

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine 1 cup olive oil, basil, red pepper flakes and 2 cloves garlic. Puree until blended and thick. Pour into a shallow baking dish and add the chicken. Toss to coat and marinate the chicken while finishing the dish.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet. Crush 3 garlic cloves and set aside. Heat 1 cup olive oil in the skillet. Add the garlic and cook until golden. Remove sausage from casings and add to the skillet. Saute the sausage until browned.
  • In the boiling water, blanch the broccoli rabe until just soft but still crunchy. Transfer rabe to a bowl of ice water. Remove from water, drain on paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
  • Grill the chicken until cooked through and juices run clear.
  • To the browned sausage, add the mushrooms and saute until mushrooms start getting soft. Add the rabe, the chicken stock and a pinch of red pepper flakes and season with salt and pepper.
  • Slice the bread and lay out on a serving plate. Spoon some of the broccoli rabe/sausage mixture over top, then cover each with 1 chicken breast and 1 thigh. Top with arugula, tomatoes and sliced provolone cheese. Then drizzle some of the broccoli rabe sauce over top, to wilt the arugula, and serve immediately.
