Ingredients

  • 1teaspoonsalt
  • 1(12 ounce) boxgluten-free tortiglioni pasta
  • 2tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 3anchovies
  • 1clovegarlic, crushed
  • 2poundsbroccoli rabe, stemmed and cut into large pieces
  • 1 ½cupstoasted plain gluten-free bread crumbs, divided
  • 1cupgrated Pecorino Siciliano cheese, divided
  • 1tablespoonred pepper flakes

  • Directions

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook tortiglioni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes.

    Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add anchovies and garlic. Saute until slightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes, but do not overcook garlic, as this will make the dish bitter. Add broccoli rabe and stir to coat. Alternately add 1/2 of the bread crumbs and 1/2 of the Pecorino Siciliano cheese, stirring constantly, adding 1/2 tablespoon oil while mixing.

    Drain pasta and fold into the mixture, taking care not to break the pasta. Fold in remaining cheese and bread crumbs gently. Top with remaining oil. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with red pepper.



    Cook's Note:

    You can use fresh hot peppers instead of red pepper flakes, if desired.
