BAKED PASTA WITH SAUSAGE & BROCCOLI RABE



Baked Pasta with Sausage & Broccoli Rabe image

This gooey baked pasta is inspired by the classic combo of broccoli rabe and sausage. It's delicious, comforting and super adaptable, too. Don't like broccoli rabe? Use regular broccoli or kale! Vegetarian? Use a plant-based meat crumble! There are many ways to make this recipe your own, so get cooking!

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound sweet or hot Italian sausage (casings removed)
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
24 ounces jar marinara sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound rigatoni or other short pasta
1 pound broccoli rabe (chopped)
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 pound mozzarella (torn into bite-size pieces)
2/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
Basil leaves (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large, deep, ovenproof skillet or braiser pan, cook the sausage in the olive oil over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until nicely browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the fennel seeds and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the marinara sauce and bring to a simmer. Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
  • In a pot of boiling water, cook the pasta 2 minutes less than the package suggests. Add the broccoli rabe and cook with the pasta for 1 minute. Scoop out ¾ cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta in a colander. Return the pasta and broccoli rabe to the pot. Fold in the sauce, heavy cream, reserved pasta water, and half of the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses.
  • Transfer the mixture to the skillet or braiser pan and scatter the remaining cheeses on top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until bubbling and browned. Let stand for a few minutes, then garnish with basil and serve.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta
1 pound hot Italian sausage links, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound broccoli rabe, cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup pasta boiling water
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink, reserving 1/2 cup of the water.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the sausage pieces, garlic, and red pepper flakes in the hot pan until the sausage is no longer pink on the outside, about 4 minutes. Stir in the broccoli rabe and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Pour in the reserved 1/2 cup of pasta boiling water. Cover, and cook until the sausage is no longer pink in the center and the broccoli rabe is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Stir the cooked pasta, broccoli rabe, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese together until evenly mixed. Season to taste with salt and pepper to serve.

  • Begin by preparing the tomatoes and sausage. For the tomatoes, I boil them for a couple of minutes, until I see the skin start to crack. I then remove from boiling water and let them cool down a bit. Once they are cool enough to touch, I can easily peel off the skin. Cut in half, remove the seeds and then continue to chop. For the sausage, cut off the end of the casing and squeeze out bite sized amounts of the sausage at a time. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil which will be used for the broccoli rabe later.
  • In a deep frying pan, pour in about two ounces of olive oil and heat over a medium flame. After the oil has heated up, add in the bite sized sausage pieces. Sauté for about two to three minutes, making sure to stir so that it cooks evenly and doesn’t burn. Add in the garlic and onion and continue to sauté for about two minutes.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and continue to cook for about ten to fifteen minutes over a medium/low flame. After five minutes, lower the flame and add the broccoli rabe into the boiling pot of water. Let cook for about two to three minutes. Fill a big bowl with ice and cold water which will be used for blanching the broccoli rabe. Scoop the broccoli rabe out of the boiling pot of water and place into the big bowl of ice water. This is to stop the cooking process of the broccoli rabe. Set aside to cool down. I like to use this hand strainer to easily scoop the broccoli rabe.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta one minute less than per the package instructions. Once the pasta has been added to the boiling water, remove the broccoli rabe from the cold water, squeeze the excess water out and then add into the pan with the tomatoes and sausage. Add salt and black pepper, to taste, mix and continue to cook over a low flame until the pasta is done cooking.
