After stirring in the broccoli, give it a taste and add more salt, pesto, or cooking water, as needed. Then top with Parmesan and dig right in. 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.
