Provided by bnpolley

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 pound uncooked turkey sausage, Italian-style, casings removed
2 teaspoons olive oil, extra-virgin
2 medium yellow pepper, cut into 2-inch long thin strips
1 medium uncooked onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup red wine
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, minced
28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes, fire-roasted recommended
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or less to taste
1/4 teaspoon table salt
8 ounces uncooked whole-wheat pasta, fusilli
1/3 cup basil, fresh, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, to make sauce, in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, cook sausage, stirring and breaking up meat with back of a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate. Heat oil in same skillet. Add yellow peppers and onion; cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are lightly colored and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add wine and garlic; cook until most of liquid evaporates, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes, crushed red pepper, salt and browned sausage; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until vegetables are tender and sauce is heated through, about 10 minutes. While sauce simmers, add pasta to boiling water and cook according to package instructions. Drain pasta; return to pot. Add sauce and basil; toss to mix and coat. Yields about 1 1/3 cups per serving.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover sausage and peppers. I also like to add some cooked chicken or shrimp to make it a more complete meal.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The sausage and peppers are cooked to perfection, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. I served it over pasta, but it would also be great on rice or mashed potatoes.
