Pasta e ceci is a classic Roman dish that looks simple on first blush, but is filled with flavor. An aromatic combination of olive oil, red pepper flakes, onion, garlic, and tomato paste is first broiled to develop deep, complex flavors. Rosemary, chickpeas, white wine, broth, and pasta are then added and slow cooked until melded. Cooking the pasta along with the other ingredients ensures it soaks up all that flavorful broth.
