A simple seasonal recipe that’s perfect for a cool fall night. From Everyday Food, October 2012 . Ingredients:
salt and pepper |
3/4 lb orecchiette |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
3/4 lb sweet italian sausage, casings removed |
1 lb parsnip, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds (halved if large) |
1 bunch swiss chard, tough stems and ribs removed, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, plus more for serving (grated 2 ounces) |
Directions:
1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain pasta and return to pot. 2. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, breaking meat up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to pot. Add parsnips to skillet and saute until softened and browned, 5 minutes. Add chard and cook until wilted, 2 minutes. Transfer mixture to pot and toss.
