Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 packet good-quality linguine
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cup green peas
- 1 bunch broccoli rabe

- 2 tbsp garlic (I’ve used roasted but you could use fresh, just reduce to 1 tbsp & roughly chop)
- Sea salt, to taste
Method
- Cook linguine according to packet instructions.
- Meanwhile, heat olive oil in large frying pan over medium–high heat.
- Add peas and broccoli rabe and sauté for 2-3 mins.
- Add pesto, olives and garlic and cook for 1 min.
- Taste and add salt as desired.
- Once cooked, drain pasta and tip into sauce, tossing to combine and finishing with extra drizzle of olive oil.
