This speedy one-pot pasta dish is a riff on classic orecchiette con cime di rapa, or orecchiette with broccoli rabe, from Puglia in southern Italy. We opt for sweet, mild Broccolini instead of broccoli rabe, which has a notable bitterness, and we cut the stalks into small pieces that combine well with the pasta. If you’re a fan of rabe, feel free to use it, but reduce the cooking time by a minute or two, as rabe tenderizes more quickly. Each of the other ingredients plays a key role in the dish, lending big, bold and bright Mediterranean flavor. Oil-packed anchovies are sold in tins and jars that vary in size; a two-ounce container should contain about 12 fillets, the amount needed for this recipe.

Great easy meal with lots of flavor
Great stuff, and easy to prepare. Nice mix of bitter and salty and bit of citrus. Highly recommended.
