This is a variation of a recipe that was in Bon Apetit magazine years ago. This is a great dish to prepare for a friend or neighbor when they need a little help! I always get rave reviews. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 medium onion, sliced |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
1 lb italian sausage (remove casings) |
1 (115 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 quart half-and-half |
1 lb penne pasta |
1 cup parmesan cheese |
1 cup white wine |
Directions:
1. Saute onions and garlic in butter and olive oil until golden brown and tender, about 7 minutes. 2. Add sausage, breaking it up as it cooks until golden brown and cooked through, about 7 minutes. 3. Add wine and boil until liquid almost evaporates, about 2 minutes. 4. Add tomatoes with juice from can and simmer 3 minutes. 5. Add half and half and simmer until sauce slightly thickens, about 5 minutes. 6. While sauce is cooking boil penne in salted water. 7. Drain. 8. Add to sauce and toss with cheese. 9. Serve with a green salad, Italian bread, and more cheese! |
