Fusilli with Sausage, Artichokes, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 38m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, sliced, 2 tablespoons of oil reserved
1 pound Italian hot sausages, casings removed
2 (8-ounce) packages frozen artichoke hearts
2 large cloves garlic, chopped
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
16 ounces fusilli pasta
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan, plus additional for garnish
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
8 ounces water-packed fresh mozzarella, drained and cubed, optional
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil reserved from the tomatoes in a heavy large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown, breaking up the meat into bite-size pieces with a fork, about 8 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl. Add the artichokes and garlic to the same skillet, and saute over medium heat until the garlic is tender, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, wine, and sun-dried tomatoes. Boil over medium-high heat until the sauce reduces slightly, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fusilli in boiling water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Drain the pasta (do not rinse). Add the pasta, sausage, 1/2 cup Parmesan, basil, and parsley to the artichoke mixture. Toss until the sauce is almost absorbed by the pasta. Stir in the mozzarella. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve, passing the additional Parmesan cheese alongside.

Fusilli with Sausage and Oyster Mushrooms image

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces fusilli
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
6 ounces spicy Italian sausage removed from casings (from 2 to 3 links)
1 clove garlic, minced
Pinch pepperoncini chile flakes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
6 ounces oyster mushrooms, trimmed from the stems
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
Freshly grated Pecorino-Romano, for serving
8 to 10 fresh basil leaves, torn

Steps:

  • Bring a shallow pot of water to a boil and season heavily with salt. Add the pasta to the water and begin to cook.
  • Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, heat half of the olive oil over medium heat along with the sausage and cook, breaking apart the meat into smaller pieces, until browned. Add the garlic, pepperoncini and tomato paste. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until softened, 4 to 6 minutes longer.
  • Using a spider or slotted spoon, strain the pasta directly into the mushroom mixture. Add about 1/2 cup pasta water and the white wine and bring to a simmer. When the pasta begins to get coated and the sauce begins to thicken, add the Parmesan, butter and rosemary and turn off the heat. Stir the mixture until thickened. If too thick, add a splash of pasta water. Season to taste. Divide among bowls and garnish with Pecorino-Romano and torn basil leaves.

  • Add the pasta and 1/2 cup of the cooking water to the tomatoes. Cook over medium-high heat, gently stirring, until the pasta is well coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more cooking water if the pasta is dry; season with salt.

Provided by spaghetti_soprano

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 38m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup drained sun-dried tomato packed in oil, sliced, 2 tablespoons of oil reserved
1 lb hot Italian sausage, casings removed
2 (8 ounce) packages frozen artichoke hearts
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
16 ounces fusilli
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese, plus additional for garnish
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaf
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
8 ounces water-packed fresh mozzarella cheese, drained and cubed (optional)
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil reserved from the tomatoes in a heavy large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown, breaking up the meat into bite-size pieces with a fork, about 8 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl. Add the artichokes and garlic to the same skillet, and saute over medium heat until the garlic is tender, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, wine, and sun-dried tomatoes. Boil over medium-high heat until the sauce reduces slightly, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fusilli in boiling water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Drain the pasta (do not rinse). Add the pasta, sausage, 1/2 cup Parmesan, basil, and parsley to the artichoke mixture. Toss until the sauce is almost absorbed by the pasta. Stir in the mozzarella. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve, passing the additional Parmesan cheese alongside.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Pasta: Fusilli, with its corkscrew shape, is the perfect choice for this recipe as it holds the sauce well. However, you can also use other short pastas like penne or rotini.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients make all the difference in this simple dish. Look for ripe grape tomatoes, sweet Italian sausage, and a robust marinara sauce.
  • Cook the Sausage Thoroughly: Ensure the sausage is cooked through before adding it to the pasta. This will prevent the pasta from becoming greasy.
  • Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings to your liking. Add more red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or a pinch of dried oregano for an herbal note.
  • Garnish Before Serving: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, or a drizzle of olive oil add a touch of elegance and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

This easy and delicious Fusilli with Grape Tomatoes and Sausage is a crowd-pleasing meal that's perfect for busy weeknights. With its simple ingredients and minimal prep time, it's a go-to recipe for a satisfying and flavorful dish.
