Photo: Annabelle Breakey
 8 ounces orecchiette pasta
 8 ounces Italian-style sausages, casings removed
 1 tablespoon olive oil
 1 shallot, chopped
 1 garlic clove, minced
 3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
 1 bunch broccoli rabe, ends trimmed, chopped
  About 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  Parmesan cheese
Step 1
1

Cook pasta as package directs. Meanwhile, in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, brown sausages in oil, stirring to break up, about 5 minutes. Add shallot and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in vinegar and scrape pan to loosen browned bits. Add broccoli rabe, sprinkle with 1/4 tsp. salt and the pepper, and cook, covered, until bright green and tender-crisp, about 2 minutes.

Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water. Return pasta to pot along with sausage mixture. Add a little reserved water if pasta seems dry. Season with salt to taste and serve with parmesan.
