I've never had any luck cooking broccoli rabe--always comes out too bitter for me-- so I made this with leftovers in my refrigerator which were chicken, mushrooms and fresh spinach. Great sauce for using leftovers and I think it could be made using just the vegetables.

I changed up the recipe with a few cloves of minced garlic, used broccoli instead of rabe, mushrooms, parmesan cheese, no lemon juice. add chopped sundried tomatoes for a kick too!

This lacks flavor. I expect more kick from Italian dishes.

Made this again last night. It's one of our family's favorites. Love the freshness of the lemon!

My family and I really liked it, but I made a few changes. I read previous reviews that said the lemon taste was overwhelming, and others that said it was bland. So, I only used the juice of half a lemon, instead of 1/4 cup of lemon juice. I also added about a teaspoon of red pepper flakes, which was perfect, because the dish wasn't too hot, but there was a definite heat left in your mouth after a bite. I could not find broccoli rabe, so as other reviewers said, I just used the crowns of broccoli. I added a chicken boullion cube to the chicken broth (I know, a HUGE cheat, to add a little more body. And I left the pine nuts out, because my husband and I both dislike the flavor. I found that I didn't need to add any of the pasta water, as it was already saucy enough. I know it sounds like I made a completely different dish, but the changes were minor, and the dish was great!

I love this recipe. It is very easy to make. I usually use one of the store made rotisserie chickens. I also add fresh cracked pepper. I don't think this meal is bland at all.

This is a healthy dish but it doesn't have much flavor. It is really boring and difficult to eat because it is so bland.

Excellent balance of flavors! Please do try it with the broccoli rabe...regular broccoli although very fine is not at all the same. I did add the red pepper flakes, mostly because we like it in similar dishes. Fresh lemon juice, toasted pine nuts, and good freshly grated parmesan really enhance the chicken/pasta/broc rab base. Short cuts will short out the flavor.
