Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon chili oil
2 lbs Italian sausages (sweet or spicy)
4 tablespoons marsala wine
2 1/2 cups pasta sauce (chile tomato sauce for pasta)
1 cup water
1 lb instant polenta
chicken stock (for the polenta)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat the chile oil in a skillet and add the sausages; separating the links and letting them fry for about 5 minutes until they are colored.
  • Add in the Marsala and let the pan bubble for a minute or so, then pour the tomato chile sauce and water over the sausages.
  • Simmer for 15 minutes while you make the polenta; prepare polenta according to package directions except use chicken stock rather than just water.
  • When the polenta is cooked, whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • Divide the polenta among 6 warm plates and top with the sausages and hot tomato sauce. If you have more sauce than you need per plate, just pour it into a little pitcher for people to add as they want.
