Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces sweet bulk Italian sausage
1 stalk celery, diced
½ yellow onion, chopped
¾ cup dry elbow macaroni
¼ cup tomato paste
3 cups chicken broth, or more as needed, divided
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
3 cups chopped Swiss chard
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini (white kidney) beans, drained
¼ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus additional for serving, or to taste

Steps:

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown sausage while breaking it into small pieces, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add diced celery and chopped onion. Cook until onions are translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add dry pasta. Cook and stir 2 minutes.
Stir in tomato paste until evenly distributed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 3 cups broth. Raise heat to high and bring to a simmer. Add salt, black pepper, pepper flakes, and oregano. When soup comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and let it simmer about 5 minutes, stirring often. Check soup consistency and add more broth, if needed.
Place chopped chard in a bowl. Cover with cold water and rinse the leaves; any grit will fall to the bottom of the bowl. Transfer chard to colander to drain briefly; add to soup. Cook and stir until leaves wilt, 2 to 3 minutes.
Stir in white beans; continue cooking and stirring until pasta is perfectly cooked, another 4 or 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in grated cheese. Serve topped with grated cheese, if desired.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor. Fresh vegetables, flavorful Italian sausage, and a rich broth are essential.
Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many ingredients, the soup will be watery and bland. Add the ingredients in stages, starting with the aromatics and then adding the vegetables, sausage, and beans.
Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices, such as basil, oregano, and rosemary.
Serve the soup with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and a side of crusty bread for dipping.
