This is soooo yummy. I didnt know this was a Food Network Recipe. I was in my local grocery store and they create items for their customers to try. They made this! Never had rapini....it was great. However, it makes a HUGE amount of food. I will split recipe in half next time and I like it a bit more soupy so I put 2 cups of broth.

This recipe was so easy to make and so flavorful. I only had beef broth on hand so I used that instead of the chicken broth and it came out delicious. This is a great week night dinner that warms up nicely the next day for lunch.

Easy, delicious and so satisfying! This combination has always been one of my favorite dining-out options; I replaced the cavatelli with orecchiette. Yum!
