PASTA WITH SPICY SAUSAGE, BROCCOLI RABE AND CHICKPEAS



Pasta With Spicy Sausage, Broccoli Rabe and Chickpeas image

In this hearty weeknight pasta recipe, chickpeas contribute an earthy, nutty flavor to the classic combination of sausage and broccoli rabe. The addition of Parmesan, butter, and lemon juice just before serving balances the heat from the sausage with a bit of richness, creating a bright and flavorful sauce in the process. This pasta is incredibly versatile: You can use any sturdy greens or even broccoli in place of the broccoli rabe, and feel free to swap in whatever pasta shape and canned beans you have on hand. You can even substitute sweet Italian sausage or ground pork or turkey for the sausage in a pinch; add about 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes to give this dish its spicy kick.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 pounds broccoli rabe or broccoli, chopped, tough stems discarded, or hearty greens like kale or escarole
1 pound shaped pasta, such as campanelle or orecchiette
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound hot Italian sausage, casings removed, or sweet Italian sausage, ground pork or turkey
3 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1/2 cup dry white wine or chicken stock
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas or other white beans, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or pecorino, plus more for serving
1 lemon, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Roughly chop the broccoli rabe, add it to the pot, and cook for 3 minutes. Use a sieve or slotted spoon to lift the broccoli rabe from the water and place it in a colander to drain.
  • Bring the water back to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain pasta.
  • Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven or deep, 12-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. (Don't worry if the sausage is not completely cooked through.) Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the wine and cook, scraping any bits from the bottom of the pan, until the wine is reduced by half, about 1 minute.
  • Add the broccoli rabe, chickpeas, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the sausage is cooked through and the broccoli rabe is very tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the pasta and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water, toss well, and cook over low heat until the sauce comes together, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add additional pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, if needed for moisture.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, add the butter, Parmesan, lemon zest and lemon juice, and toss until the butter is melted. Divide pasta among shallow bowls and top with additional cheese sprinkled on top.

Provided by Food Network

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Two 28-ounce cans plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
1 cup chopped fresh basil, plus 4 large fresh basil sprigs
1 pound dried rigatoni
1 pound spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
1 1/2 cups shredded provolone
1 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden, about 2 minutes. Add both cans of the tomatoes and 1 cup water. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat slightly, add the basil sprigs and simmer rapidly, uncovered, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Discard basil and stir in the chopped basil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While the sauce simmers, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Cook the rigatoni in the salted boiling water until very al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package directions instruct. Drain the pasta and add it to the large bowl.
  • Add the tomato sauce and half each of the mozzarella, provolone and Parmesan cheeses to the bowl and stir well to combine. Transfer the pasta-sausage mixture to a 3- to 4-quart baking dish and top with the remaining mozzarella, provolone and Parmesan cheeses. Bake, uncovered, until browned, about 15 minutes. Let the pasta rest about 10 minutes before serving.

PASTA WITH CLAMS, WHITE WINE AND SPICY ITALIAN SAUSAGE



Pasta with Clams, White Wine and Spicy Italian Sausage image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

36 littleneck clams
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium red chile, such as red jalapeno or red Fresno, finely sliced
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1/2 pound spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes
3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves picked
1 pound linguine
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons butter, cold, cubed
Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Pecorino Romano, grated, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place the clams in a large bowl and cover with cool tap water. Salt the water well and let the clams sit for 20 minutes to an hour to purge them of sand and grit. Drain and scrub the shells well under cold running water.
  • Set a large roasting pan across two burners. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the chile, fennel and sausage, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up the sausage.
  • Once the sausage is nicely browned, deglaze the pan with the white wine. Add the clams and stir everything together until well combined. Arrange the tomatoes on top, add the thyme, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook until the clams pop open and the cherry tomatoes are roasted and juicy, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the linguine until al dente. When the clams are done, return the roasting pan to the stovetop over high heat. Simmer to reduce excess liquid and to open any clams that are still closed (stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon also helps).
  • Taste sauce and season with salt as needed.
  • Drain the pasta and transfer it directly into the roasting pan. Add the butter, lemon zest and juice, and the parsley. With tongs, toss everything together to coat the pasta in the sauce.
  • Serve topped with plenty of grated pecorino if using.

SPICY TOMATO CREAM SAUCE PASTA W/ ITALIAN SAUSAGE



Spicy Tomato Cream Sauce Pasta w/ Italian Sausage image

This is a combination of a couple of different recipes that I have combined. Make it spicy or not up to you. The spicier the better in my house.

Provided by Melissa Turner

Categories     Pork

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lb hot italian sausage
1 box penne, mostaccioli, fettucini or linguini
1 large onion
1 pt heavy cream
1 1/2 c chicken broth
28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
1 can(s) tomato paste
5 clove garlic minced
1 Tbsp cajun seasoning
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 c parmesan cheese
3 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. While cooking sauce cook your pasta al dente and drain. Dice and caramelize onion in butter. Add Italian sausage to onions and brown. If in casings remove from casings. When sausage is browned add garlic and cook for another minute or two. Drain excess fat if you want to. I leave it in and dish does not come out greasy.
  • 2. Add chicken broth to sausage mixture and simmer for about 5 minutes. Now add crushed tomatoes, paste, salt, pepper, and a heaping tablespoon of cajun seasoning (if wanting it milder just add a teaspoon or two and use mild sausage). Let simmer for a few more minutes. Add heavy cream and simmer for a couple of minutes.
  • 3. Now add pasta and parmesan cheese to sauce and let simmer for 5 minutes. We prefer this recipe with mostaccioli pasta, but I have made it with several different types of pasta and it has been good with all of them. So just use your favorite.
  • 4. This recipe started from TRACY JOYNER's recipe on here. As I stated in the description I have combined a couple of recipes with Tracy's to come up with this. I wanted to make sure Tracy got credit for being the inspiration of this dish.

SPICY SAUSAGE PASTA



Spicy Sausage Pasta image

The kind that can be whipped up in thirty minutes or less from start to finish and only mess up one dish. And of course, they need to knock-my-socks-off with flavor as well! I am so in love with this spicy, creamy, cheesy pasta for all of those reasons. It is just packed with so many incredible flavors. This came from Kevin & Amanda. When I made this recipe I made minor changes to the recipe. I used vegetable oil, mozzarella flavored sausages, half & half, and cheddar cheese. Next time I plan to not use Rotel as this was a bit to spicy for my families taste.

SPICY SHRIMP AND SMOKED SAUSAGE PASTA



Spicy Shrimp and Smoked Sausage Pasta image

This dish is my own version of the many different dishes served with the same name down in NOLA. Down there they use Taso ham instead of smoked sausage most of the time, but the sausage is easier to find and just as good in my opinion.

Provided by graniteangel

Categories     Creole

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

19 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deviened
8 ounces smoked sausage, chopped into small cubes
1 large onion, chopped
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1 teaspoon louisiana hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Cook Tortellini in boiling water just until they start to float. Rinse with cold water. Toss pasta with the teaspoon of olive oil to avoid sticking.
  • Try to use either andouille or Emeril's kicked up smoked sausage. You want a spicy sausage for this dish.
  • Melt the butter in a sauce pan. Saute smoked sausage, onion, celery, bell peppers, and garlic. Let cook on Med-high for 3-4 minutes. Add shrimp and let cook another 2 minutes, or until shrimp looks mostly pink.
  • Add wine, cream, creole seasoning, herbs, hot sauce and fresh black pepper. Turn temp down to Med and let reduce for 3-4 minutes.
  • Pour sauce over the pasta and toss in the Parmesan cheese.
  • Serve imediately with french bread and butter. Goes great with a nice salad. I recommend a nice crisp chardonnay wine to go with it.
  • Sometimes I even add catfish nuggets to this dish. I saute them with the shrimp and sausage. It's pretty good that way too.

PERFECT SPICY SAUSAGE PASTA SALAD



Perfect Spicy Sausage Pasta Salad image

Gorgeous!! Morish!! ...and the easiest Pasta Salad to make by far!! One helping is never enough!! Prep time does not include the time taken to *cook the Pasta which usually takes about 10 minutes in the microwave. I add plenty of salt and a good dollop of Olive Oil to the water. (I find the Olive Oil flavours the Pasta) 'BEER STICKS' are about the size of Frankfurters, but the meat is like that of pepperoni OR salami. They are called Beer Sticks in N.Z. but there may well be another name used for them elsewhere.

SPICY ITALIAN SAUSAGE PASTA



Spicy Italian Sausage Pasta image

This is a quick dinner I tend to make but never really wrote down the ingredients, before. After making it for a week's worth of lunches, I decided to jot down what I did and record it for posterity. It should probably have green bell peppers in it, but I don't mind how it turned out this time.

Provided by David J Rust

Categories     European

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon fennel seed
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
9 ounces vidalia onions (half of that amount diced, half of that amouned frenched or cut radially)
4 garlic cloves (minced)
10 ounces hot Italian sausage (bulk)
6 ounces roasted red peppers
6 ounces tomatoes (diced, approximates 1 medium tomato)
1 tablespoon marjoram (dried)
1 tablespoon basil (dried)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 ounces tomato paste
1 cup chicken broth
6 ounces wide egg noodles (cooked)
4 ounces parmesan cheese (grated)

Steps:

  • In a skillet over medium heat, combine the olive oil, fennel seeds, and chili flakes and cook until the fennel seeds start to snap and pop.
  • The onion, half of it finely diced and the other half frenched, should be added to the skillet at this point and sauteed until translucent. (OPTIONAL: If you were to add any green bell pepper, it should be when the onion goes in, and it should be diced.) Add the minced garlic and continue for 1-2 minutes until the garlic starts to lightly brown on the edges.
  • Add the spicy Italian sausage in small bits about the size of half a walnut and saute until brown.
  • Add the diced roasted red pepper, tomato, marjoram, and basil. Toss with the rest of the ingredients and season with the salt and black pepper.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and cook it for 2-5 minutes, until it coats everything and smells sweet; perhaps a bit smokey. Be careful, however, not to burn the tomato paste.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and stir to dissolve the tomato paste. Taste and re-season with salt and pepper. Simmer uncovered until the liquid thickens.
  • Add the cooked egg noodles and toss the sauce throughout.
