Jan's Cavatelli with Broccoli Rabe

Jan's Cavatelli with Broccoli Rabe
  • 2 pounds ricotta cavatelli
  • 1 pound broccoli rabe, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, removing from casings and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 10 ounces roasted red peppers, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 2 tablespoons concentrated chicken stock (such as Knorr®)
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese


  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook cavatelli in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 9 to 11 minutes. Drain.
  2. Fill the same pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Add broccoli rabe; cook until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain.
  3. Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and onion; cook and stir until sausage is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in broccoli rabe, roasted red peppers, and garlic. Cook until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.
  4. Dissolve chicken stock with white wine and water in a small bowl. Whisk in cornstarch. Pour chicken stock mixture into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a simmer until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. Pour sauce over cooked cavatelli and top with Parmesan cheese. Toss lightly and serve.
