Pasta with Spicy Sausage, Radicchio, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Sun-dried tomatoes add a touch of sweetness and just the right hit of acid to balance out the spicy sausage and pleasingly bitter notes of radicchio in this simple pasta.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound casarecce or other short pasta
Kosher salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 pound spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1 1/4 pounds radicchio, cored, coarsely chopped (about 7 cups)
1/2 cup thinly sliced drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 3/4 cup pasta cooking liquid; return pasta to pot.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add onion and 1/4 tsp. salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes (do not brown). Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up sausage into small bits with a wooden spoon, until sausage is mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add radicchio and 2 Tbsp. water. Cook, covered, until sausage is cooked through and radicchio is wilted, 3-5 minutes more.
  • Add tomatoes, sausage mixture, and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid to pot with pasta. Season with salt and pepper, toss to coat, and add remaining 1/4 cup pasta cooking liquid, if needed. Divide among serving plates and top with pepper.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this dish was surprisingly mild. The radicchio and sun-dried tomatoes really mellowed out the heat from the sausage.

Easy to make and packed with flavor. I used a mild Italian sausage and it was still plenty spicy. The radicchio added a nice bitterness that balanced out the sweetness of the tomatoes. Will definitely be making this again!
