Button mushrooms would also be fine here. This recipe can be prepared in 45 minutes or less. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil |
3/4 pound fully cooked pork, chicken or turkey sausages, thickly sliced into rounds |
3/4 pound fresh wild mushrooms (such as crimini or stemmed shiitake), thickly sliced |
3/4 cup chopped shallots |
5 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper |
1 10-ounce package ready-to-use spinach leaves |
1 1/4 cups canned low-salt chicken broth |
3/4 pound penne pasta, freshly cooked |
2 cups (about 8 ounces) grated provolone or mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add sausages, mushrooms, shallots, garlic and crushed red pepper. Sauté until mushrooms begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add spinach and broth; toss until spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Add pasta and cheese; toss until cheese melts and sauce coats pasta, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. |
