ITALIAN SAUSAGE SPAGHETTI



Italian Sausage Spaghetti image

This is my favorite method of making Italian sausage spaghetti. By browning the sausages first and then cooking them in the sauce at a long, slow simmer, the sausage is loaded with flavor and firm, but tender--almost meatball-like in texture. And we hardly need any seasonings because the long cook time allows the sauce to get infused with all the sausage-y goodness!

Provided by Chef John

Time 2h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 (6 ounce) sweet Italian sausage links
¼ cup white wine
1 (32 ounce) jar marinara sauce
1 ½ cups water
1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
½ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf (Italian) parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Transfer sausage links into the hot pot. Cover with a lid and cook until beautifully browned and just barely cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. You can increase the heat a little if you like, but make sure the oil does not smoke. Turn off the heat and remove sausages to a plate to cool completely.
  • While the sausages are cooling, add wine to the same pot over medium-high heat. As it comes up to a simmer, stir the caramelized bits on the bottom of a pan with a spoon or spatula. Simmer until it reduces by about half, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add marinara sauce. Pour water into the jar of pasta sauce, seal, and shake to rinse out the jar. Pour that liquid into the pot and return to a simmer. Reduce heat to low.
  • Slice each fully cooled sausage into 4 pieces. Transfer sausage and any accumulated juices into the simmering sauce. Stir and increase heat to just between low and medium-low. Cook at a gentle, steady simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour. Taste and adjust seasonings. Skim about 1/2 of the fat from the surface, and continue to cook until reduced and thick, about 30 minutes longer.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until almost tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain spaghetti and transfer it directly into the pot of hot sauce. Mix until thoroughly combined. Cover with the lid and let sit for 1 minute so the pasta can absorb some of the sauce.
  • Evenly divide pasta onto 4 plates and top each serving with 4 pieces sausage. Sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano and parsley.

SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE SAUCE (BEEF AND ITALIAN SAUSAGE)



Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce (Beef and Italian Sausage) image

I've been working on this recipe for years--tweaking and fussing, and I believe it is about ready. My family and friends love it. I also use it as meat sauce filling for lasagna.

Provided by Pokey in San Antonio

Categories     Sauces

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground beef
1 lb link Italian sausage
3 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes (drained)
1 1/2 cups onions (diced)
1 cup bell pepper (diced)
1 cup mushroom (sliced)
1 cup red wine
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
3 teaspoons basil
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons marjoram (dried)
2 teaspoons thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese (grated)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (grated)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, season to taste with salt and pepper, drain and set aside.
  • Cut link sausage up into meatball size pieces, brown, drain, and set aside. I use Thomasville Hot. If making sauce for lasagna, remove sausage from casings and brown with the ground beef.
  • Sauté garlic, onion, and bell pepper in olive oil, just until the onions are translucent.
  • Add meat, tomato sauce, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, mushrooms, sugar, and wine. I use fresh mushrooms, and a red burgandy for a deeper earthy flavor. Omit mushrooms if making sauce for lasagna.
  • Simmer on medium low for at least one hour, stirring occasionally.
  • When ready to serve, mix corn starch with water and add to sauce, along with both cheeses to thicken.
  • When cheese is incorporated, and sauce has thickened, serve over your choice of pasta or use as a meat filling for lasagna.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Italian Sausage Spaghetti Sauce image

Recipe by Rita Futral, as reported by Helen Dollaghan in the Oct. 27, 1985, edition of The Denver Post. The recipe comes from the first place winner in the Hunt-Wesson national spaghetti contest. Note: The recipe is posted as the original, but I have no experience adding the cheese with such a long cooking time. I'd add it towards the end fearing it would settle and possible stick or, worse, burn.

Provided by Robin Lieneke

Categories     Pasta

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, cut in one inch pieces
1 lb sweet italian sausage
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 green pepper, diced
5 cremini mushrooms, diced
1 small zucchini, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/3 c olive oil
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 c all purpose flour
3 c milk
1 lb spaghetti
1/3 c parmesan cheese, grated
3 c colby cheese, shredded
1-2 tsp seasoning salt
2 tsp italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Brown Italian sausage in one tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside. Season the chicken breast with one teaspoon of Italian seasoning and half a teaspoon of seasoning salt. In the same skillet add another tablespoon of olive oil and brown the chicken. Set the chicken aside reserving the remaining olive oil in the pan.
  • 2. Boil the spaghetti according to package directions until it is just al dente. Set aside reserving the pasta water.
  • 3. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and the zucchini pieces. Saute for 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the pasta water and cover. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until zucchini is tender but not mushy. Remove the zucchini from the skillet and set aside. Discard any liquid remaining in the skillet.
  • 4. And the remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet. Add worcestershire sauce. Saute the onions, bell peppers and mushrooms until they are soft. Sprinkle the flour over these vegetables and stir until the flour is combined. Saute for a minute or two to get rid of that raw flour taste.
  • 5. Pour milk into the skillet with vegetables and stir until it starts to thicken. Add the remaining seasoning salt and Italian seasoning. If it becomes too thick use a little pasta water to thin the mixture to a sauce consistency. Add the tomatoes and parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
  • 6. Drain the spaghetti. Add the meats, zucchini and the shredded cheese to the spaghetti and pour the sauce over the mixture. Stir together until all cheese is melted. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with some garlic bread and a salad to make a completely comforting meal.
