Dinner in a hurry doesn't get any easier (or tastier) than this Sausage, Broccoli Rabe & Orecchiette recipe. The entire meal, including the pasta, cooks in a single skillet—how’s that for a time- and dish-saver? While you can certainly use another type of pasta, small curved orecchiette are perfectly shaped to hold bits of sausage and greens, ensuring every bite is flavor-filled. The rich sausage and the sweet Caramelized Onion & Burgundy Wine Cooking Concentrate balances the broccoli rabe's bitter notes, and red pepper flakes add some heat. Since it's ready in 20 minutes and only uses 6 ingredients, Sausage, Broccoli Rabe & Orecchiette is the perfect no-fuss skillet meal for busy families on a weekday.
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons Caramelized Onion & Burgundy Wine Cooking Concentrate
12 ounces mild Italian pork sausage
8 ounces uncooked orecchiette pasta (about 2 cups)
3 cups water
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 bunch broccoli rabe, cut in 1-inch pieces (about 6 cups)
Directions
Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat.
Stir in the uncooked orecchiette, water, concentrate, and red pepper. Cover and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 10 minutes or until the orecchiette is tender.
Stir in the broccoli rabe. Cover and cook for 3 minutes or until the broccoli rabe is tender-crisp. Season with black pepper (no need to add salt). Serve with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
