1
Prepare the Broccoli Rabe
In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the chopped broccoli rabe for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
2
Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the Italian sausage. Use a wooden spoon to break it up and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.

3
Combine Sausage and Broccoli Rabe
Add the blanched broccoli rabe to the skillet with the cooked sausage. Stir in the Calabrian chili paste and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
4
Cook the Gnocchi
In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potato gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the gnocchi to the skillet with the sausage and broccoli rabe.
5
Finish the Dish
Add the olive oil and grated pecorino Romano cheese to the skillet. Toss everything together gently to combine, ensuring that the gnocchi are well-coated with the sauce and cheese.

6
Plate the Dish
Serve the gnocchi hot, garnished with additional pecorino Romano cheese and a drizzle of olive oil if desired. Enjoy!
