I was looking for a recipe for Olive Garden's Zuppa Tuscano - and blended several recipes to come up with this. Serve with green salad and bread. Ingredients:
1/4 lb bulk sweet italian sausage |
1/4 lb bulk hot italian sausage |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 lbs swiss chard, rinsed well and torn into bite-size pieces |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
olive oil |
2 cups penne |
parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat a large skillet and add both types of sausage and onion. Cook over medium heat until sausage is done.
2. Drain sausage and onion and wipe skillet of excess grease with some paper towels.
3. Return skillet to burner with sausage/onion and add Swiss chard and garlic, reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Cook about 15 minutes, stirring occassionally, until Swiss chard is tender.
4. In the meantime, cook pasta in salted boiling water and drain.
5. Add cooked, drained pasta to skillet with sausage and Swiss chard.
6. Add nutmeg and cream, stirring until heated through.
7. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese just before serving.
