Tender broccoli rabe is the perfect accompaniment for any pasta dish and nicely balances out the hearty sausage and salty cheese. One of our favorite secrets from this one-pot pasta recipe? We transfer the sausage from the skillet using a slotted spoon, so the fat from the sausage can coat and flavor the remaining ingredients. No need to add any additional fat or cooking oils. You can use this technique for mostly any time you're cooking sausage, then additional aromatics in the same pot. Less cleanup, even more flavor!
