Janet Quigley of Galveston, Texas perks up a platter of fettuccine with spice sausage and delicately flavored asparagus and mushrooms. The satisfying entree is easy enough for an everyday meal and colorful enough for company. Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked fettuccine |
1 package (14 ounces) reduced-fat smoked turkey sausage, thinly sliced |
2 cups cut fresh asparagus (1-1/2-inch pieces) |
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
1/4 cup shredded parmesan or romano cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions.
2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute sausage, asparagus, mushrooms, onion, garlic and thyme in oil until vegetables are tender. Combine cornstarch and broth until smooth; stir into sausage mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Drain pasta. Add to sausage mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Yield: 4 servings.
