Pasta with Chickpeas, Sweet Peppers, and Rosemary

Scott Phillips

Servings:6

While the exact recipe changes with the region, this classic dish of chickpeas, pasta, and rosemary is served throughout central and southern Italy; a drizzle of aromatic rosemary-chile oil finishes the dish to delicious effect. If you don’t have a Parmigiano-Reggiano rind for making the sauce, shave some cheese over the pasta before serving.

Preparation

  • Heat 3 Tbs. of the oil with the rosemary and red pepper flakes in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat until shimmering, 1 to 2 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  • Heat the remaining 3 Tbs. oil and the garlic in a 6-quart pot over medium heat, turning the garlic occasionally, until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes; discard the garlic. Add the peppers and 1/2 tsp. salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and brown in spots, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the chickpeas and, using the back of a spoon, gently mash some of them against the side of the pot. Stir in 3/4 cup of the cooking liquid, the tomatoes, cheese rind, if using, and 1/2 cup water. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded, about 20 minutes. (The sauce should be thin but have body. Add the remaining 1/2 cup cooking liquid as needed.)
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions. Reserve 2 cups of the pasta water and drain the pasta.
  • Add the pasta to the chickpea sauce and cook, tossing gently, until the flavors meld, about 2 minutes. Add pasta water as needed to keep the consistency loose. Season to taste with salt. Discard the cheese rind, if used. Serve drizzled with the rosemary oil and topped with Parmigiano shavings, if you like.

    Perfect comfort food. Rosemary oil is essential. It's the kind of recipe that you can lots of different vegetables or meat to and it will still be delicious.

    Just by reading the recipe I knew it needed more ingredients so I added quite a bit more peppers, all colors, red, yellow and orange. I also added finely julienned carrots and asparagus cut thin so that they would cook evenly. I feel that without these added veggies, the recipe would have have dull. Turned out to be a hit! I've made it twice now

    Made this for dinner tonight and was in kind of a rush so I forgot to drizzle the rosemary oil on top. It was still delish! Tried a bit with the oil on after and it was even better. I used whole wheat penne as that was what I had, and added some sliced Italian sausages. I cut the recipe in half and was still enough for 4 portions. Simple ingredients and very inexpensive. Will make again!
