PENNE WITH SAUSAGE AND TOMATOES



Penne with Sausage and Tomatoes image

Categories     Pasta     Tomato     Quick & Easy     Sausage     Bon Appétit

Yield 2 servings; can be doubled or tripled

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
4 Italian hot sausages, casings removed
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1/3 cup dry red wine
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes with added puree
2 teaspoons dried marjoram, crumbled
8 ounces penne pasta
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Add sausage and cook until no longer pink, breaking up with fork, about 6 minutes. Stir in pepper flakes. Add wine and boil until absorbed. Mix in crushed tomatoes. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 25 minutes. Stir 2 tablespoons marjoram into sauce.
  • Cook penne in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain well. Return penne to pot. Add half of sauce and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Serve, passing Parmesan separately. (Freeze remaining sauce up to 2 months in covered container.)

Tips:

  • Soak the dried porcini mushrooms in hot water for at least 30 minutes. This will rehydrate them and bring out their full flavor.
  • Use a good quality Italian sausage. The flavor of the sausage is key to this dish, so don't skimp on the quality.
  • Cook the sausage over medium heat until it is browned and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the sausage will not cook evenly.
  • Add the rehydrated porcini mushrooms to the pan with the sausage and cook for a few minutes more. This will allow the mushrooms to absorb the flavor of the sausage.
  • Add the cooked penne pasta to the pan with the sausage and mushrooms. Stir to combine.
  • Season the dish with salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This penne with dried porcini and Italian sausage is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of the sausage, mushrooms, and pasta is sure to please everyone at the table. Plus, it's a relatively easy dish to make, so you can have it on the table in no time.
