Sausage With Chard And Rhubarb Recipes

SAUSAGE WITH CHARD AND RHUBARB

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm oil. Prick sausages with a fork and place in skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer sausages to a plate.
• Add shallots to oil and reduce heat to medium. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in mustard seeds and garlic; cook 1 minute. Add rhubarb and greens, a handful at a time, and a large pinch of salt. Cook until the greens wilt and become tender, about 10 minutes. Season with more salt and pepper. Serve sausages on top of greens.

CHARD AND BEANS WITH CHICKEN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Toss the sausages with 1 teaspoon olive oil on the pan and bake, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, slice the chard stems and roughly chop the leaves. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chard stems and leek and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beans and garlic to the skillet and cook, stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Gradually add the chard leaves, stirring to wilt. Add the heavy cream and chicken broth and simmer until the vegetables are soft and the beans are creamy but not soupy, about 3 minutes, adding a few splashes of water if the pan seems dry. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the beans and greens among shallow bowls. Slice the sausages and add to the bowls; sprinkle with the parsley.

SAUTEED RHUBARB CHARD

Steps:

• In a large skillet over low heat, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and saute until the garlic begins to color, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the rhubarb chard and saute until the leaves are just wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

RHUBARB-CHIPOTLE SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Bring rhubarb, chipotle peppers with sauce, ruby port, and sugar to a boil in a saucepan; simmer over medium-low heat until rhubarb is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Blend the rhubarb-chipotle mixture in a blender until smooth. Place ground pork in a large bowl and thoroughly mix 2/3 of the blended sauce into the pork. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Form about 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture into a small patty and pan-fry the patty until browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes per side. Taste the patty and mix remaining rhubarb-chipotle sauce, salt, and black pepper to taste into the uncooked pork mixture (do not taste uncooked pork).
• Soak corn husks in warm water in a large bowl until softened, about 10 minutes. Heat a smoker to 250 to 275 degrees F (120 to 135 degrees C) and add wood chips to the smoker.
• Scoop up about 1/3 cup to a scant 1/2 cup of seasoned pork mixture and form into a sausage shape; place into a soaked corn husk and tie the ends of the husk with twine to enclose the sausage. If husk is too narrow to cover entire sausage, use 2 husks per sausage. Repeat with remaining husks and pork mixture.
• Smoke sausages in the preheated smoker until thoroughly cooked and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the thickest sausage reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 2 hours.

SAUSAGE AND SWISS CHARD STRATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until browned, 5 minutes. Transfer sausage to a small bowl, leaving behind as much fat as possible. Add shallots and chard stems to skillet and cook over medium until shallots are translucent, 3 minutes. Add a little water to pan and cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits from skillet with spoon. Add chard leaves and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread half the sausage in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with half the chard mixture. Top with bread, overlapping slices slightly. Top with remaining sausage and chard mixture. In a large bowl, whisk together milk and eggs, season with salt and pepper, and pour evenly over top. Firmly press on strata to submerge bread in egg mixture. Cover dish tightly with foil and let sit 10 minutes (or refrigerate up to overnight).
• Bake strata 45 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese, and bake until cheese melts and egg mixture is mostly absorbed and set in center, 6 to 10 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

SAUSAGE AND SWISS CHARD PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions for al dente. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook sausage and red onion until no longer pink, 3-4 minutes, breaking into crumbles. Add fennel, mushrooms and garlic; cook until tender, 6-8 minutes. Add Swiss chard; cook and stir until wilted, 4-5 minutes longer., Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup pasta water. In a large bowl, combine pasta, sausage mixture, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, adding enough reserved pasta water to coat pasta and create a creamy texture. Serve with remaining cheese and pine nuts.
