  • 3/4 pound orecchiette
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, smashed
  • 3 tablespoons pine nuts
  • 3 oz pancetta, sliced, coarsely chopped
  • 5 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 10 oz frozen chopped broccoli, thawed, drained, and patted dry

Accompaniment:

  • parmesan, grated

Recipe Method

1. Cook orecchiette in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 6 quarts water) until al dente.

2. While pasta cooks, heat butter and oil with garlic in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until garlic starts to sizzle. Add nuts and cook, stirring, until pale golden. Discard garlic and stir in pancetta and scallions, then cook 1 minute. Stir in broccoli and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook over high heat, stirring, 4 minutes.

3. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta-cooking water, then drain pasta and stir into broccoli mixture.

4. Add some of reserved water to moisten if needed.
