Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb tagliatelle pasta noodles (fresh or dried or other wide, long pasta)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 lb hot Italian sausage, casings removed
1 lb frozen peas, thawed
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 bunch fresh basil leaf, 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.
