Best 6 Lemony One Pan Orecchiette With Sausage And Broccolini Recipes

ORECCHIETTE WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orecchiette and cook according to package instructions.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium high heat. Crumble the sausage into the skillet and cook, breaking apart with a spoon, until lightly browned, 5-6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic; cook for 1 minute more.
• Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil, chicken broth, broccoli, salt and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan to release the flavorful brown bits, until the broccoli is tender-crisp, 3-4 minutes. Stir in the butter until melted and simmer for a few minutes to reduce and concentrate the sauce.
• Drain the pasta well and place back in the pasta pot. Add the sausage and broccoli mixture, along with half of the cheese, and toss to blend. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to a serving platter or individual bowls and pass the remaining grated cheese at the table.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: This dish can be frozen for up to 3 months and reheated on the stovetop. If the dish has dried out a bit in the freezer, add a little water or broth while reheating. Just take care only to reheat it and not continue to cook it.

ONE POT ORECCHIETTE WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Add the sausage (1 lb.) and onions to a large, deep skillet, pot, or Dutch Oven with a lid (make sure it's big enough to add the pasta in later!). Cook over medium high heat until the sausage has browned and the onions have softened, breaking up the sausage with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the minced garlic (2 cloves) and crushed red pepper (1/4 teaspoon) if using. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until garlic is fragrant. If you find that some of the sausage has stuck to the bottom of the pan, add 2-4 tablespoons of water, chicken broth, or white wine to the skillet, using a wooden spoon to help dislodge any stuck-on bits.
• Add chicken broth (2.5 cups) and bring to a boil. Add the pasta, along with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (if using water, use 1 full teaspoon, and if using a chicken broth with lots of sodium, omit entirely).
• Stir, turn heat down to low, cover, and simmer for 12 minutes (at this point, the pasta won't be entirely cooked yet). Add the broccoli, stir, cover, and simmer for another 3-5 minutes, until pasta is fully cooked and broccoli has softened and turned a bright green. (If it seems a little "soupy" but the pasta is fully cooked, I recommend letting it sit uncovered for 5-10 minutes to allow it to cool, thicken, and the steam to evaporate a bit.)
• Serve with fresh grated parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, fresh cracked black pepper, and a little more crushed red pepper if desired.

ORECCHIETTE WITH BROCCOLINI AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil; add a generous amount of salt. Add the orecchiette and cook to al dente (take 3 minutes off of the time on the box; it'll finish cooking later). Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage to a plate, keeping the fat in the skillet. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the broccolini and cook until crisp-tender, about 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the pasta and sausage to the skillet along with the Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, a couple of pinches of crushed red pepper and a bunch of turns of black pepper. Stir in a few tablespoons of the pasta water and continue to cook, stirring, until glossy, adding more pasta water if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Sprinkle with more Parmesan before serving.
