I haven’t posted a recipe for awhile, so I thought I’d put up what I’m making this evening.
Fresh Pasta with Italian Sausage and Sun Dried Tomatoes
12 Ounces Sweet Fresh Italian Sausage
6 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1/2 Cup Coarsely Chopped Onion
1 Garlic Clove Minced
1/4 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
6 Sun-Dried Tomatoes Cut Into 1/4 Inch Strips
1/2 Cup Boiling Water
1 Pound Fresh Pasta
Garlic Salt & Black Pepper to Taste
Break sausage into small pieces. Brown in skillet (cook thoroughly). Remove sausage to a bowl. Add oil and onion to hot skillet. Cook 5 minutes until golden. Add sausage, garlic and red pepper flakes to the onions in the skillet.
Mix and keep warm over low heat. Place sun-dried tomato strips in 1/2 cup boiling water while you cook the pasta. Cook pasta as directed. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and the water they are soaked in, and sausage mixture to the pasta. Sprinkle with garlic salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
I’d have to pick out the oogy tomato bits, but otherwise, yum!
I’m not fond of tomatoes, but I do like sun dried ones a lot.
