Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Drain well, and return the pasta with rapini to the pot.

Drizzle 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil over and toss well. Set aside.

Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

Add the garlic and shallots, stirring often, and cook until shallots are browned and soft, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the red bell pepper strips, and cook for about 3 minutes until bell peppers just start to become soft.

Add the sun-dried tomatoes, olives and artichoke hears, stirring often, and cook until the mixture is hot, 2 to 3 minutes.

Transfer the mixture into the pot with pasta and rapini.

Add the parsley leaves, lemon juice and zest, and toss until well combined.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste

Top with Parmesan and wlanuts and serve warm.
