Pasta With Pink Vodka Sauce and Sausage image

This is one that I adopted from Emeril. It's actually a recipe I've been making for years and then found his. I always use a great quality hot turkey or hot chicken italian sausage for this and find that it's just as good as the real deal, however, the true recipe calls for real hot italian sausage. I make it a bit spicier and usually serve this with penne or farfalle. If I don't spice it up too much, even my 2 and 4 year old love this one.

Time 30m

Yield 6 , 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb hot Italian turkey sausage, casing removed and crumbled
1 cup yellow onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
6 tablespoons vodka
6 tablespoons heavy cream
3 tablespoons fresh basil, minced
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated
1 sprig fresh basil, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until just al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain in a colander and return to the saucepan.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring, until browned and all pink has disappeared, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onions, salt, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the onions are soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until thick, about 2 minutes. Add the vodka and cook until the sauce reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the cream and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Stir in the basil and remove from the heat.
  • Toss the sauce with the pasta to coat evenly and transfer to a pasta bowl for serving. Top with cheese and sprig of basil and serve immediately.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This recipe was a little too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my old pasta recipes.

I thought this dish was just okay. The sauce was a little bland and the sausage was a bit dry.

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some cream.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

The flavors of this dish were amazing! The vodka sauce was creamy and tangy with just the right amount of spice from the sausage. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and everything came together really well.
