This orecchiette pasta dish is packed with flavor and quick to make -- and the whole family gobbles it up, broccoli and all.

Provided by Jennifer Segal, adapted from

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound orecchiette
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 pound sweet or spicy Italian sausage, removed from casings
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 pound broccoli florets
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup freshly grated pecorino Romano

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.

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.

Provided by Kay Chun

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, weeknight, pastas, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound sweet Italian pork sausage, casings removed
1 pound broccoli, cut into 1 1/2-inch florets (about 4 cups)
2 medium yellow bell peppers (12 ounces), cored, seeded and thinly sliced (about 2 1/2 cups)
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and pepper
1 pound rigatoni
1/2 cup grated Parmesan (2 ounces), plus more for serving
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 1/2 lemon)
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat using a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the broccoli, peppers and garlic to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until they soften and begin to brown, about 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water and drain the pasta. Return the pasta and reserved cooking water to the pot over low heat. Add the broccoli mixture, cooked sausage and its accumulated juices, 1/2 cup Parmesan, the lemon juice and red-pepper flakes and stir vigorously until liquid is slightly thickened and saucy, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGE PARMESAN WITH GARLICKY BROCCOLI



Sheet-Pan Sausage Parmesan With Garlicky Broccoli image

Using quarter sheet pans (small rimmed baking pans measuring about 12 inches by 9 inches) allows you to cook your main course and side dish at the same time in the same oven, but without the mixing of flavors that would happen if you combined everything in one large pan. So the sausage juices can mingle with the tomato sauce and melted cheese, without compromising the roasted garlicky broccoli to serve alongside. You can use hot or sweet Italian sausages here, or a combination - as long as you can remember which is which for serving.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, sausages, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
Large pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 large sprig basil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 small bunch broccoli (about 12 ounces), cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds hot or sweet Italian sausage, pricked all over with a fork
1/3 cup fresh ricotta
3 cloves garlic, 2 thinly sliced, 1 finely grated or minced
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Chopped basil or parsley, for serving
Italian bread, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare sauce: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until shimmering. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, basil sprig, salt and pepper, and bring to a brisk simmer. Simmer until sauce is very thick and most of the moisture is evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes. It should be thicker than the usual marinara sauce. Remove and discard basil sprig.
  • While sauce is cooking, toss broccoli with oil, red pepper flakes and salt on a quarter-size rimmed baking sheet (or use a regular sized rimmed baking sheet), and place in oven.
  • Arrange sausage in a single layer on a quarter-size rimmed baking sheet or in a 9-by-13-inch roasting pan, and roast along with broccoli until golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Flip sausages over so browned sides are on top.
  • When you flip the sausages, remove broccoli from oven and toss with sliced garlic. (Reserve grated garlic for later.) Drizzle broccoli with a little more oil. Return pan to oven and continue to roast broccoli and sausages until sausages are cooked through and broccoli is tender and browned, about 5 minutes longer.
  • Meanwhile, mix ricotta with grated garlic.
  • When broccoli is done, remove from oven and tent with foil to keep warm. Top sausage with tomato sauce and dollops of ricotta, then drizzle with olive oil and grind pepper generously over top. Sprinkle on mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly, and the garlic is opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Or if you prefer you can broil the cheese to melt it, 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Serve sausages, sauce and cheeses with broccoli on the side. Pass crusty bread for sopping up the tomato sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality sausage: The sausage is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a sausage that is made with fresh, high-quality meat and has a good flavor.
  • Don't overcook the sausage: Sausage can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it is cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center.
  • Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli is best for this dish. If you can, use broccoli that is still attached to the stalk. This will help the broccoli stay crisp during cooking.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli can also easily become overcooked. Cook it just until it is tender-crisp, but still has a bit of a bite to it.
  • Use a good quality pepperoncini sauce: The pepperoncini sauce is what really makes this dish special. Look for a sauce that is made with fresh pepperoncini peppers and has a good balance of heat and flavor.

Conclusion:

Sausage and broccoli with pepperoncini sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great dish to serve at parties or potlucks. If you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook sausage and broccoli, this recipe is definitely worth trying.
