This pasta dish is quick and easy. The sauce is flavorful and the spicy Italian sausage gives it just a little kick. Serve with a salad and warm Italian bread. Pappardelle noodles might be difficult to find, so you can use any type of noodle for this dish. Ingredients:
olive oil, divided |
4 (3.5 ounce) links spicy italian sausage, casings removed |
1 large onion, thinly sliced |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1 orange bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup white wine |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice |
1/4 cup very thinly shredded fresh basil leaves, divided |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley |
1 (8 ounce) package pappardelle pasta |
Directions:
1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Crumble sausage into the pot and cook until completely browned, about 5 minutes. Remove sausage from pot with a slotted spoon to a bowl, retaining oil and drippings in pot.
2. Cook and stir onion in reserved drippings until tender, about 5 minutes. Season onion with salt, Italian seasoning, and black pepper; stir. Add red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and orange bell pepper to the onion mixture; cook and stir until the peppers are slightly tender, about 2 minutes.
3. Stir white wine and garlic into the pepper mixture. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cook until the liquid reduces to almost nothing, 7 to 10 minutes.
4. Stir diced tomatoes with their juice into the pepper mixture. Return sausage to the pot; fold gently to integrate the sausage. Cook at a simmer until the sausage is reheated and the tomatoes tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Drizzle remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil over the sausage mixture. Add about half the basil and the parsley; stir. Place lid on pot and remove from heat.
6. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pappardelle at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain. Divide pasta between 6 bowls; top with sausage mixture to serve.
