SPICY PENNE WITH CORN AND SAUSAGE



Spicy Penne with Corn and Sausage image

Mascarpone cheese transforms this humble pasta recipe into a dream! Corn and sausage make up the heft of this dish, while Calabrian chiles make it spicy!

Provided by Amanda

Categories     Italian

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound penne rigate
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 pound Italian sausage (spicy or sweet), removed from casings if in links
1 large shallot, finely minced
1 large garlic clove, finely minced
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1/3 cup dry white wine
8 ounces mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1 to 2 tablespoons Calabrian chile paste, to taste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (about 0.75 ounces)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving 2/3 cup of the pasta water for the sauce.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cook the sausage for 9 to 12 minutes, until cooked through and slightly golden. Use the back of a wooden spoon to break up the sausage while it cooks. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the shallot and a sprinkling of salt; sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the corn kernels and cook until warm, about 3 minutes. Raise the heat to high and deglaze the pan with the white wine, stirring to scrape up the brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Cook for 3 minutes more to allow the wine to reduce.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the mascarpone cheese and approximately 3/4 cup of the corn mixture. Process until mostly smooth, about 1 minute. It will still be slightly chunky and that's okay. With the heat cut off, return the mixture to the pan with the remaining corn mixture and add back the sausage and the Calabrian chile paste. Stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. When the pasta is al dente, add to the skillet, pour the Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta so it begins to stick to the pasta and mix to combine. Add enough pasta water to thin the sauce to your desired consistency. Reserve the remaining pasta water to use to reheat any leftover pasta; just add a little pasta water to thin the sauce out again before placing in the microwave. Add the fresh basil and toss again. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with additional freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

CREAMY SAUSAGE PENNE



Creamy Sausage Penne image

This luscious pasta dish is one I've avoided making recently; it's not exactly a lowfat dinner and I feel guilty serving it to my husband -- neither of us should be eating such a high calorie meal. But it's so, so good! Even though I can't claim it's part of a healthy diet, I hope you try it at least once -- it's a fast, easy dish, after all! I serve this with a simple green salad.
