Provided by Food Network

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
One 28-ounce can whole plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
One 15-ounce can whole plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
4 large sprigs fresh basil
3/4 pound sweet or spicy Italian sausage, casing removed
1 green bell pepper, halved, seeded and thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, halved, seeded and thinly sliced
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 pound dried rigatoni
3 cups shredded Italian fontina cheese
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 olive 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 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 the basil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, 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 using a slotted spoon. Add the green and red bell peppers and onion to the skillet with the sausage drippings and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden in spots, about 8 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the sausage.
  • Cook the rigatoni in the salted boiling water until very al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package directions. Drain the pasta and add it to the bowl.
  • Add the tomato sauce, half of the fontina and half of the Parmesan to the bowl and stir well to combine. Transfer the pasta to a 3- to 4-quart baking dish and top with the remaining fontina and Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, until browned, about 15 minutes. Let the pasta stand about 10 minutes before serving.

SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS PASTA WITH BROCCOLI



Sausage and Peppers Pasta With Broccoli image

The classic Italian combination of sausage and peppers creates a satisfying and easy weeknight meal when combined with pasta. Broccoli is a fantastic nutritious addition that adds texture and cooks up quickly, or you can opt for broccolini or broccoli rabe if you want a more assertive vegetable. Sweet Italian pork sausage is used here, but there's no need to feel tied to the recipe: Substitute with spicy Italian sausage for extra heat, use chicken-apple sausage for a healthier take, or swap in fresh chorizo or breakfast sausage to turn this dinner into brunch.

SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS PASTA BAKE



Sausage and Peppers Pasta Bake image

Sausage and peppers is a dish that takes me down memory lane: my mom and I make it every year in a big batch for family reunions. One year when we had leftovers, I realized that adding the slow-cooked sweet peppers and onions to tomato sauce gave it so much great flavor and a natural sweetness - no sugar needed. That, combined with my constant need to get ahead on meal prep, led me to develop this recipe. By assembling the dish the day before, you can avoid having to boil the pasta and instead let it sit in the sauce overnight to soften and absorb all that flavor. In the end, you'll have a delicious pasta bake ready to pop into the oven when you're ready for dinner. Plus, you can make a big batch of the tomato sauce to freeze along with any leftovers, making it truly the dish that keeps on giving.

Time 9h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound Italian sausage, a mix of sweet and spicy, casings removed
2 red bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2 yellow bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1/2 medium or 1 small yellow onion, finely diced (about 1/2 cup)
4 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons tomato paste
One 28-ounce can tomato puree
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 sprig fresh basil, plus more for garnish
1 pound rigatoni
1 cup ricotta
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat a 4 1/2-quart Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and heat until hot, about 1 minute. Break up the sausage into small pieces, add to the Dutch oven and cook, without stirring, until the sausage is caramelized on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Begin to break up the sausage into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon and continue to cook, stirring often, until caramelized all over, cooked through and broken into 1/2-inch pieces, another 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and set aside.
  • If the Dutch oven is dry, add 1 tablespoon oil if needed and immediately stir in the peppers and onions. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are very soft, about 10 minutes; the vegetables should not take on much color besides what comes from scraping the bottom of the pot to coat them in the sausage flavor.
  • Stir in the garlic and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and cook until the garlic just begins to toast and become fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until the paste coats the vegetables, toasts slightly and becomes a darker shade of red, about 2 minutes. Add the tomato puree, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, basil and 4 cups water. Stir the sauce together and season with additional salt to taste; make sure the sauce is well seasoned since it will season the pasta as well.
  • Stir in the rigatoni and bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. As soon as you see the first few bubbles, simmer for 1 more minute, then remove from the heat. Stir in the reserved sausage. Carefully ladle the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Discard the basil. Cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate overnight, at least 8 hours. The pasta will soften as it sits in the sauce.
  • When ready to bake, remove the baking dish from the refrigerator and uncover. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Dollop the ricotta in 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds over the top of the dish and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Bake until bubbling around the edges and the ricotta begins to brown on top, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then garnish with basil leaves and more Parmesan.

SAUSAGE-AND-PEPPERS PASTA WITH ALMOND FRICO



Sausage-and-Peppers Pasta with Almond Frico image

Take the classic Italian-American pairing of sausage and peppers and turn it into a fun, fast weeknight dinner. Crumbled spicy Italian sausage and chopped roasted red peppers are combined with orecchiette-the "ear" shaped pasta is perfect for catching the saucy bits. To dress it up, make a quick and crunchy frico with Parmesan and almonds. Lastly, a side of arugula brings a peppery bite along with good-for-you vitamins to the table.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for skillet and drizzling
4 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated (1cup)
1/3 cup almonds, toasted and chopped
12 ounces spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1 jar (12 ounces) roasted peppers, drained and chopped
4 teaspoons sherry vinegar
12 ounces orecchiette
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups baby arugula

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium 2 minutes; brush lightly with oil. Sprinkle evenly with 1/3 cup cheese and almonds; cook until crisp and browned on bottom, about 2 minutes. Scrape onto a plate; let cool, then crumble. Return skillet to medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Add sausage and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Add peppers and 3 teaspoons vinegar; cook 1 minute.
  • Cook pasta in a pot of salted water 1 minute less than package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain. Add pasta and remaining 2/3 cup cheese to skillet; toss to coat, adding enough reserved pasta water to create a silky sauce.
  • In a bowl, toss arugula with remaining 1 teaspoon vinegar and a drizzle of oil; season to taste. Serve over pasta with frico.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: Italian sausage is the traditional choice for this dish, but you can also use other types of sausage, such as bratwurst or chorizo. Just make sure that the sausage is fully cooked before adding it to the pasta.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausage and peppers, make sure that you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the sausage from browning properly and the peppers from getting soggy.
  • Use a large pot for the pasta: When cooking the pasta, use a large pot so that the pasta has plenty of room to cook. This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Save some pasta water: When draining the pasta, reserve some of the pasta water. This can be used to thin out the sauce or to add moisture to the pasta.
  • Serve with Parmesan cheese: Grated Parmesan cheese is the traditional topping for pasta with sausage and peppers. It adds a delicious salty and nutty flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Pasta with sausage and peppers is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of savory sausage, sweet peppers, and tender pasta, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
