  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method

--------  ------------  --------------------------------

  1             medium  escarole head

  1              pound  radiatore -- or other bite-size pasta

  3        Tablespoons  olive oil

  3             cloves  garlic -- minced

     1/3      teaspoon  crushed red pepper -- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon or to taste

  1 1/2           cups  cooked white beans -- or 1 (15.5 ounces) can, rinsed & drained

                        salt and black pepper

In a large pot of boiling water, cook the escarole over medium-high heat

until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain well, then coarsely chop and set

aside.

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta over medium-high

heat,stirring occasionally until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain well,

drizzle with 1 Tablespoon of the oil, and toss to coat. Set aside.

In a large pot, heat the remaining 2 Tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add

the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Stir in the crushed red

pepper, beans, and cooked escarole and season with salt and black pepper.

Add the cooked pasta and toss gently to combine and heat through. Add a

few tablespoons of water or a little more oil, if necessary, to coat the

pasta. Add a few more grinds of black pepper and serve hot.

Serves 4

AuthorNote: To save pot-washing time, I use the same pot for all three

steps: Cook the greens, cook the pasta, then let the pasta sit in the

colander while you heat the oil in the same pot. If escarole is

unavailable, substitute curly endive (chicory) or kale. Tender,

quick-cooking greens such as spinach or chard may also be used, but they

just require a light blanching before chopping for the recipe.
