RIGATONI WITH SAUSAGE, SPINACH, AND GOAT CHEESE



Rigatoni with Sausage, Spinach, and Goat Cheese image

While this recipe is delicious as is, you can do a couple of things to give it even more flavor. Use a combination of spicy and sweet sausage instead of just sweet and--something I do almost every time I use goat cheese--use a fork to mix into it 1/2 teaspoon each of chopped fresh parsley, chives, and thyme.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Salt to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 pound sweet Italian sausage or a combination of sweet and spicy, casings removed
3/4 pound rigatoni
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
4 ounces spinach, well washed and dried and coarsely chopped (about 2 cups)
1/2 pint cherry, grape or sungold tomatoes
4 ounces fresh goat cheese
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the sausage and use a fork to crumble the sausage into the pan. Increase the heat to medium-high, and fully cook the sausage, adding some of the pasta water to deglaze the pan.
  • Cook the rigatoni until just shy of al dente. Before draining, reserve about 1 cup of the cooking water.
  • Add the pasta to the pan with the sausage, reserving the cooking liquid, and add the parsley. Add the spinach and tomatoes and cook, tossing, until the spinach has wilted. Add some of the reserved cooking liquid, if needed. Remove from the heat. Crumble the goat cheese with a fork and add it along with the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Add a bit more of the cooking liquid if needed and serve.

Chorizagna - My Mexican Chorizo Lasagna image

Looking for a flavorful dinner? You've found one with this chorizo lasagna recipe. It's so easy and delicious! Chorizo adds a mild spiciness to the lasagna which pairs well with the pop of paprika. The cottage cheese adds a wonderful creaminess to the dish. We chose to use the pepper jack cheese and it does add a bit of heat. If...

Categories     Casseroles

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 box lasagna noodles ready-bake
1 pkg chorizo (Mexican sausage, mild or medium), 16 oz.
1 green pepper
1 medium yellow onion
1 clove garlic
1 can(s) favorite spaghetti sauce, 24 oz.
1 pkg cheese (pepper jack cheese- if you like spicy), 8 oz.
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 large container of cottage cheese, 24 oz.
1 egg

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. In a medium pan heat chorizo (if in casing remove casing - we only need the filling :D). Cook through and pour it into a dish to set to the side for now.
  • 3. Chop onion, green pepper, and garlic. Heat oil in the pan. Add ingredients to the pan. Heat until slightly translucent.
  • 4. Add sauce and chorizo to the pan with onion mixture. Keep on medium heat until heated through.
  • 5. Break egg into a bowl. Add cottage cheese and mix.
  • 6. Spray casserole dish with Pam/grease with butter/whatever you prefer (I like Pam). Layer some of the meat until it covers the bottom of the dish.
  • 7. Sprinkle some cheese on top of the meat.
  • 8. Drop spoonfuls of cottage cheese mixture next and spread. Then place the bake-ready lasagna strips over that (covering the cottage cheese). Finish this layering process and end with either meat or cottage cheese. Top with remaining cheese, salt, and pepper.
  • 9. Pop in the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes. Check it - if it's bubbling, it's done. Let sit for about 10 minutes or more. Enjoy!

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
1 1/4 cups quick-cooking polenta
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Olive oil
1 small onion, diced
1 pound ground pork
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 cloves garlic, minced
One 14.5-ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, such as Glen Muir
1 bunch Swiss chard
1 clove garlic, minced
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup grated fontina cheese
1/2 cup grated mozzarella

Steps:

  • For the polenta: Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a large pot. Add the polenta and whisk until fully incorporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the salt and cook, covered, over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes. Finish by folding in the melted butter. Keep warm while you prepare the chorizo.
  • For the chorizo: Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until almost translucent, and then add the ground pork. Brown 4 to 5 minutes while breaking the pork pieces up with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the paprika, granulated garlic, onion powder, chili powder and cumin, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 1 minute longer to toast the spices, and then add the vinegar, garlic and tomatoes. Simmer until the sauce is thickened and reduced, 8 to 10 minutes. Taste and season once more with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  • For assembly: Wash, drain and finely slice the chard. Heat the garlic and some olive oil in a large pan and saute, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Drain in a colander and squeeze out any excess moisture.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-by-8-by-2-inch gratin dish or an oval 9-inch cast-iron pan. Pour half of the polenta in and spread out evenly. Top with half of the chorizo and all of the Swiss chard. Sprinkle with half of each cheese. Repeat with a layer of the remaining polenta, then the remaining chorizo, and finally the remaining cheese. Cover with foil, place the dish on a sheet tray and bake 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, 15 minutes longer. Let sit 25 minutes to set up, then cut into portions and serve.

GOAT CHEESE LASAGNA



Goat Cheese Lasagna image

Necessity is the mother of . . . well, you know. This recipe was born when I went to the grocery store one day and they were out of ricotta. It occurred to me that goat cheese being the same consistency, it might do in a pinch. I find it lends itself beautifully to this dish, and now my family prefers this recipe to the traditional. Use the un-aged soft goat cheese, for example Chavroux. If you are looking for a marinara sauce recipe, I've posted one that goes especially well with this dish ! Preparation time does not include time to prepare the marinara sauce.
