Testy pasta recipe

Ingredients

• 1  pound  orecchiette
• 1  tablespoon  olive oil
• 1  pound  sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
• 2  cloves  garlic, finely chopped
• 2 1/2  cups  low-sodium chicken broth
• 1/8  teaspoon  crushed red pepper
• 1  bunch  broccoli rabe
• 4  tablespoons  butter, cut into pieces

Directions

1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and return it to the pot.

3. Stir in the garlic and cook 1 minute.
4. Add the broth and red pepper and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli rabe and simmer, covered, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Stir in the butter and Parmesan and cook, uncovered, until the sauce thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
6. Toss the pasta with the sausage mixture and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
