Turkey Sausage With Broccoli image

I had to make something for a luncheon at work. I needed to feed a crowd and I was sooo busy that week that I needed something easy. So here it is. I did this in two days only because I didn't have enough time in one day. It is easy and quite delicious. This got great raves! It's a good party dish. Measurements might be a tad off. I'm the type of cook that just throws in.

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 lbs sweet turkey sausage
1 1/4 lbs penne pasta
2 heads broccoli, cut into small pieces, i didn't use stalks
3 medium onions, cut up
1 cup white wine
3 tablespoons sweet butter (can use margarine)
3 garlic cloves
1 dash oregano
1 dash sage
olive oil, enough to cover bottom of large pan and maybe a tad more, definitely a tad more (I love olive oil)
chili pepper flakes, to taste
grated parmesan cheese, enough to cover top and mix in casserole (Be generous)

Steps:

  • Cut up onions and fry in olive oil till carmelized.
  • As I said I did this the day before and put them in refrigerator.
  • Just because of a time issue.
  • If you make it all in one day carmelize onions and then put aside.
  • Cut through the casing on the sausage and cut sausage into small pieces.
  • Throw away casing.
  • While olive oil is hot throw sausage in pan.
  • Cut up your broccoli and throw in the pan.
  • Add wine and 2 tablespoons of butter.
  • About 15 minutes.
  • While doing this boil your penne with some salt.
  • I use Kosher salt.
  • Once the penne is boiled and drained put in large pan.
  • Then add broccoli, sausage and all your spices.
  • Mix in the carmelized onions.
  • Then add grated parmasean cheese.
  • Mix well and have some on top.
  • Bake for 15 minutes 350 oven.
  • Everything is really cooked.
  • You just want to heat it up.
