Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fresh or dried tagliatelle pasta (or other wide, long pasta)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 pound hot Italian sausage, casings removed
1 pound frozen peas, thawed
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 bunch fresh basil leaves chopped (about 3/4 cup)
1/4 cup fresh grated Pecorino Romano cheese
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes if dry or according to package directions if fresh. Drain pasta reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, in a large, heavy skillet heat the olive oil and garlic over medium-high heat and add the sausage. Use a wooden spoon to break up the sausage into bite-sized bits. When the sausage has browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside. Add the peas to the pan and, using the back of the wooden spoon, smash the peas. Turn off the heat. Add the ricotta cheese along with the cooked pasta and toss to coat, adding the pasta cooking water in 1/4 cup additions, if needed, to make the pasta moist. Return the sausage to the pan. Add the basil, Pecorino Romano cheese, and salt. Toss gently to coat and serve immediately.

TAGLIATELLE WITH PEAS, SAUSAGE, RICOTTA AND CLASSIC GENOVESE PESTO



Tagliatelle with Peas, Sausage, Ricotta and Classic Genovese Pesto image

Classic Genovese pesto is one of my pantry go-to's. It brings a burst of Italian flavor to many dishes, but especially to this pasta dish. A pesto like this can easily elevate the taste and appeal of almost any food, and you don't have to prep anything. It's one of my secret weapons in the kitchen to amp up any dish.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 1-pound box tagliatelle pasta
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3/4 pound breakfast pork sausages, casing removed
1 cup peas, thawed if frozen
1 cup ricotta
3/4 cup prepared Genovese pesto, such as Barilla
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add a good tablespoon of salt to the water. Add the pasta and cook according to box instructions, reducing the cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving about 1 cup of the cooking water.
  • While the pasta is cooking, in a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil, garlic and red pepper flakes over medium heat. Add the sausage, breaking it up with the side of a spoon. Cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the peas, ricotta and pesto to the skillet and mix to combine. Add the pasta to the skillet, along with a couple of tablespoons of pasta water. Stir until the sauce coats all of the pasta. Mix well using a pair on thongs. Season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and the black pepper. Add the sausage back to the skillet. Serve with Parmesan.
