Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 37m

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ lb. dry penne pasta
1 cup broccoli florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 8 ounces)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons salted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 asparagus spears, chopped
½ cup diced zucchini
¼ cup diced sweet bell pepper
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
¼ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
½ cup heavy cream, at room temperature
½ cup finely-grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup frozen peas, thawed
¼ cup minced fresh chives (or sub with thinly-sliced green onions)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves (or sub with 1 teaspoon dried basil)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water for 1 minute less than al dente, according to package instructions (that was about 9 minutes total for my box of penne). During the final 3 minutes of cooking time, add the broccoli florets to the boiling water with the pasta. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Cook the chicken in the oil until browned on both sides and juices run clear, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a cutting board, let rest for 5 minutes, and then slice into thin strips.
  • In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in asparagus, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook for 1 minute. Add the zucchini and bell pepper, cook for 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Add the chicken broth, increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low so that the liquid is at a gentle simmer. Stir in the cream and Parmesan until smooth.
  • Add the cooked pasta, broccoli, peas, chives and basil to the sauce. Let it bubble and thicken slightly, stirring frequently, until all of the ingredients are warmed through, about 2 more minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary. Stir in the chicken and serve immediately.

3 tablespoons butter, or as needed
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, chopped
½ pound bratwurst sausage, cut into chunks
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 small head broccoli, chopped
1 zucchini, halved and sliced
1 yellow squash, halved and sliced

  • Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and keep warm.

PASTA PRIMAVERA WITH ITALIAN TURKEY SAUSAGE



Pasta Primavera With Italian Turkey Sausage image

This Primavera uses fresh veggies from your garden (or in my case, the farmer's market) and turkey sausage. The sauce is a lot lighter and more refreshing than most primavera recipes and my husband and I love to have it in the summer for a healthy pasta dish. I have also successfully used sweet italian sausage here as well. It is from allrecipes.com and states to cut the raw turkey sausage into slices. But I brown it well, then cut it and proceed with the below instructions.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling in the kitchen.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will give your pasta primavera the best flavor. If you can, try to buy organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and bland.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you are cooking the vegetables and sausage, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season your pasta primavera with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. This will help to bring out the flavors of the dish.

Conclusion:

Creamy pasta primavera with chicken and sausage is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is made with a variety of fresh vegetables, chicken, sausage, and a creamy sauce. The dish is also very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your liking. Whether you are a fan of pasta primavera or are just looking for a new dish to try, this recipe is sure to please.
