List of Ingredients



• 1 lb linguine (or other favorite pasta)
  
• 4 links sweet Italian sausage
  
• 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  
• 1 bunch of fresh broccoli rabe, sliced lengthwise, cut in half, and parboiled
  
• 1 medium clove garlic, minced
  
• 3 to 4 T white wine
  
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
  
• salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
  






Instructions



1. Cook the pasta according to package directions in a large pot of boiling, salted water.
   
2. While the pasta water comes to a boil, put the sausage in a 4-quart pot, cover the meat with water, boil, and cook for 15 minutes. Transfer the meat to a cutting board and slice it in 1" pieces.
   
3. While the pasta cooks, put the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat for about 1 minute, until the oil is hot but not smoking. Saute the sausage in the hot oil until the pieces begin to brown on all sides, about 2 minutes. Saute the broccoli rabe until softened but still firm, about 2 minutes, then saute the garlic for about 30 seconds, until it begins to turn golden.
   
4. Deglaze the pan by adding the wine and cooking for 1 minute more. Add the chicken broth and cook for another minute, until the sauce comes to a boil. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
   
5. To serve, drain the pasta and toss it in a serving bowl with the liquid part of the sauce. Adjust the seasoning and put the sausage and rabe on top of the pasta.
