Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Coarse salt
3/4 pound rigatoni
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound sweet or spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1 bell pepper (not green), cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 small yellow squash, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
2 pounds cherry tomatoes, halved
Red-pepper flakes
Grated Pecorino Romano, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, breaking apart with a slotted spoon, until cooked through, about 6 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer sausage to a bowl.
  • Add 1 tablespoon oil and bell pepper to skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned in spots, 6 minutes. Add squash and half the tomatoes; cook 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup pasta water and cook until tomatoes soften, 4 minutes. Return sausage to pan and add remaining tomatoes. Season with red-pepper flakes. Cook until sausage is warmed through and juices thicken slightly, about 2 minutes. Toss with pasta; if necessary, add remaining pasta water to create a light sauce that coats pasta. Serve with Pecorino Romano.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I would have liked it more if it had more spices.

I'm not a big fan of tomatoes, but I still enjoyed this dish. The other flavors were so good that I didn't even notice the tomatoes.

I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious this dish was. I'm not usually a fan of squash, but it was cooked perfectly in this recipe. The sauce is also very flavorful and the pasta is cooked al dente.

This dish was a hit with my family! The combination of sweet peppers, tender squash, and juicy tomatoes was perfect. The pasta cooked evenly and absorbed all the delicious flavors from the sauce.
