Best Farfalle With Spicy Sausage And Kale Recipes

SWEET AND SPICY SAUSAGE AND FARFALLE

Steps:

• Finely chop the onion and garlic. Slice the ends off the sausage, and push the meat out of the casing, and loosely crumble it up.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Once the water has come to a boil, add the pasta. Cook for 7-8 minutes, until al dente. Then drain the pasta and set aside.
• As soon as you put the water on the boil, start to prepare the rest of this dish. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions and sauté. After 2 minutes, add the sausage and red pepper flakes. For a mild spice add 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, or add more for extra spice.
• Brown the sausage, while using a wooden spoon to break it into small pieces.
• Once the sausage has browned, add the garlic, crushed tomatoes, and cream. Stir together. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the drained pasta to the sauce, along with the spinach (I tear it up as I add it in). Let the pasta and spinach simmer in the sauce for 2 minutes over medium heat. Serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH FARFALLE AND BROCCOLI RABE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the farfalle pasta, and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the Italian sausage until crumbly and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and continue cooking until the sausage begins to brown, about 5 minutes more. Pour off the excess grease, then pour in the chicken broth and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil over high heat, then add the broccoli rabe, and cover. Cook until the broccoli rabe is tender, about 4 minutes.
• When the broccoli rabe is done, stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until the meat sauce has thickened. Toss with the farfalle and serve.

FARFALLE WITH SPICY SAUSAGE AND KALE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
• In a large, heavy soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until golden brown, using a wooden spoon to break the sausage into bite-size pieces. With a slotted spoon, remove the sausage from the pot and set aside. To the same pot, add the onion and garlic and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until the onion and mushrooms start to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes with juice. Use a wooden spoon to stir the brown bits off the bottom of the pot and break up the tomatoes. Add the salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and the sausage.
• Meanwhile, blanch the kale in the boiling water for 5 minutes. Use a skimmer to remove the kale from the boiling water and add it directly to the sausage mixture. Reduce the heat and simmer the sauce, covered, for 10 minutes. Add the cream and stir to combine. Remove the mixture from the heat.
• While the sauce is simmering, add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the pasta, add to the sauce, and toss to combine. Serve with the Pecorino Romano cheese sprinkled on top.
