How to Make Fiore With Broccoli Rabe Chicken And Pecorino Cheese

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (about 12 minutes).
While pasta cooks, prepare the broccoli rabe: Bring a separate small pot of salted water to a boil. Add broccoli rabe and blanch for 1 minute, or until bright green. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain well and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced leeks; cook for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and lightly golden.
Season chicken pieces with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Increase heat to medium-high; add chicken to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through.
Add blanched broccoli rabe, chicken stock, crushed red pepper, and remaining salt and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and simmer for 5-6 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened and the broccoli rabe is tender.
Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the chicken and broccoli rabe sauce.
Stir in grated Pecorino Romano cheese and fresh marjoram. Toss to coat everything evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your iron-rich Fiore!
