Recipe by Laura Zapalowski This penne with chicken recipe will become your go-to dish on pasta night. Whole wheat pasta, broccoli rabe, and fresh lemon pump up the health factor.

Ingredients

1/2 pound uncooked whole-wheat penne 1/2 pound broccoli rabe, trimmed and cut into 3-inch pieces 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 1/2 tablespoons sliced fresh garlic 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper 2 cups skinless, boneless, shredded rotisserie chicken 1/2 preserved lemon, rinsed, pulp removed, and rind thinly sliced or 1 teaspoon grated fresh lemon zest 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese Parmesan cheese (for shaving)

Instructions

Cook penne according to package directions. Add broccoli rabe to pasta during the last 2 minutes of cooking. When penne is al dente and broccoli rabe is tender but still bright green, drain, reserving 1/3 cup pasta water; set aside. While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper, and cook 1 1/2 –2 minutes or until fragrant but not browned. Add the chicken and reserved pasta water, and cook 1 minute or until heated through. Add preserved lemon rind (or lemon zest) and salt; remove from heat. Toss chicken mixture with cooked pasta and broccoli rabe and grated fresh Parmesan; divide evenly among 4 bowls. Use a wide peeler to shave 12 (2-inch-long) strips of Parmesan. Place 3 shavings over each portion; serve immediately.
