Yield Makes 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 pound rigatoni
1/4 pound spicy Italian sausage, casing removed
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups prepared marinara sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Cook rigatoni in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain pasta.
  • Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Cook sausage in heavy large pot over medium-high heat until no longer pink, stirring frequently and breaking up with back of wooden spoon. Add garlic and sauté until soft, about 2 minutes. Drain off excess oil and return pot to medium-high heat. Stir in marinara sauce and crushed red pepper, then pasta. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide pasta among four 1 1/4-cup soufflé dishes or custard cups. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan over. Place in broiler until cheese melts and begins to brown, watching closely to prevent burning, about 1 1/2 minutes. Sprinkle rigatoni with parsley, drizzle with olive oil, and serve.

I loved the flavor of the dish, but the pasta was a bit overcooked. I would recommend cooking the pasta for a minute or two less than the recipe suggests.

The dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. The cheese and sausage were very rich and the sauce was thick and creamy. I would probably use less cheese and sausage next time.

I added some extra vegetables to the sauce, like diced bell peppers and onions, and it turned out great! The extra veggies added a nice crunch and flavor to the dish.

Followed the recipe exactly and it came out great! The sausage was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. My family loved it!
