Recipe: Rigatoni w/ Italian Sausage
This is a guest blog from Thibeault's Table.
This is a very simple pasta sauce. Can be prepared from start to finish in about 45 minutes. Make sure to boil the sausage first. This firms up the sausage, making it easy to remove the casing and to slice.Ingredients:2 Italian Sausage
Olive oil
1 to 2 cloves of Garlic
1 Can of Quality Italian Tomatoes
Fennel seed, hot red pepper, dried basil, salt and pepper to taste
Kalamata Olives (optional)
Fresh Basil
Farfalle or other favourite pasta shape.
Directions:
Par boil sausage to firm up. Remove sausage skin and slice into 1/2 inch slices.
Sauté the sausage in olive oil until lightly brown. Add minced garlic, canned tomatoes and dried seasonings. Break up tomatoes with a fork. Add the olives if using. Simmer while the water is coming to a boil and the pasta is cooked. Just before serving toss in a handful of chopped fresh basil.
Variation: Substitute clams for sausage and omit the fennel seed. Cook the sauce and then add the clams a minute or two before serving.

That looks yummy
If it were not for the fact I'm racing this weekend I would totally try it out on Sat.
that looks really good
Sounds really delicious, I'd love to try it!

Looks Yummy! :)
The version we make at my house uses turkey sausages, adds in one large onion and a large red bell pepper diced, and forgoes the fennel and hot pepper.
It's a great dish to make on a lazy afternoon because it's warm and easy. We love it!
yummmm
