Keep an eye on the garlic to be sure it browns but doesn't burn, which can make it unpleasantly bitter. Blanching the broccoli rabe helps tame its bitterness. Total time: 25 minutes. Ingredients:
3/4 pound broccoli rabe (rapini), trimmed |
1 (16-ounce) box vacuum-packed gnocchi (such as vigo) |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
1/4 cup (1 ounce) shredded parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook broccoli rabe in boiling water 4 minutes. Remove broccoli rabe with a slotted spoon, and place in a colander; drain. Add gnocchi to pan; cook 3 minutes or until done. Drain gnocchi in a colander over a bowl, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid. 2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic to pan; cook 3 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring frequently. Add broccoli rabe, gnocchi, and reserved cooking liquid to pan; cook 2 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Place 1 1/4 cups gnocchi mixture in each of 4 shallow bowls; top each serving with 1 tablespoon cheese. |
