Cavatelli With Sausage And Radicchio Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower in a single layer and cook, without stirring, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir well, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Push to one side of the pot and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the chickpeas. Cook the chickpeas, stirring, until toasted, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt.
• Meanwhile, add the cavatelli to the boiling water and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water and then drain. Add the pasta, butter and 1/2 cup cooking water to the Dutch oven and cook, stirring, until the pasta and cauliflower are well combined. Add the baby greens in two batches, stirring, and cook until just wilted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
• Stir 2 tablespoons cheese into the pasta, adding more cooking water if the pasta is too dry; season with salt. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining 2 tablespoons cheese.

Steps:

• In an 8- to 12-quart pot, bring 6 quarts (24 cups) salted water to a rolling boil.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned but not yet crispy. Remove the meat from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the onions and remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and saute until the onions are soft. Add the sausage back along with a pinch of red pepper flakes and saute an additional minute. Reduce the flame to medium low and pour in the wine, cooking until it is reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce in the skillet. Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano and radicchio and toss to combine the ingredients. Garnish with the crushed walnuts, a drop of extra-virgin olive oil and a light dusting of freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Steps:

• Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. Once hot, add the onion and the sausages and using a wooden spoon, break up the sausages into small pieces as you brown them. Add the mint and bay leaves and continue to cook.
• Once the sausage is golden brown, add the wine to the pan, and stir away, let the alcohol evaporate, then lower the flame and season with salt and pepper. Add the walnuts and let the sauce slowly simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes.
• Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions for al dente.
• When ready to serve, add the radicchio to the sauce, and stir well.
• Add the cooked pasta and toss. Add some grated Parmesan, to taste. Serve immediately. Buon Appetito!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Crumble the sausage into the skillet and add the onion. Cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the onion is softened, about 8 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and cook, stirring, until the sausage and onion are lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
• Push the mixture to the sides of the skillet and add the tomato paste in the middle. Cook the tomato paste, stirring, until darkened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rosemary, then stir the tomato paste into the sausage and onion. Stir in the wine and bring to a simmer. Cook until the wine is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups of the boiling water and bring the sauce to a boil. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes.
• While the sauce cooks, add the cavatelli and peas to the remaining boiling water and cook as the cavatelli label directs. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
• Add the cavatelli, peas and parsley to the sauce and bring to a simmer. Toss to coat, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the cheese and toss. Divide among bowls and top with more cheese.

Steps:

• In a skillet, fry sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain, and reserve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then the sausage in batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding the skillet. Cook until the sausage is fully cooked, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the sausage to a plate and return the skillet to the heat.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta.
• Meanwhile, add the butter and the chopped sage to the skillet and cook, stirring, until the butter is browned and smells nutty. Pour in the wine and cook until the alcohol has cooked off, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes. Return the sausage to the skillet, add the pasta and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and fried sage leaves and serve immediately.
• Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix together with your hands until well combined. Gently roll the mixture into 1 inch balls and set aside on a rimmed baking sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate until ready to use, for up to 4 days.
