Add the broccoli rabe and cook, stirring, until the flavors are well blended, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper and keep warm.
Cook the fusilli in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the pasta cooking liquid.
Drain the fusilli and return it to the pot.
Add the butter and toss well, then add the broccoli rabe and reserved liquid and toss again. Season with salt and black pepper and transfer to a warmed bowl.
