One Pot Spaghetti With Sausage Food

ELAINA - THE RISING SPOON

Steps:

• Place a medium-sized Dutch oven, stockpot, or saute pan (with tall, straight sides) over medium-high heat and measure in the cooking oil.
• Let the oil warm a minute, then add the onion & bell pepper. Cook 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium and stir in the garlic. Cook for about 1 minute, then add the ground sausage. Cook 3-5 minutes, while breaking the meat into small chunks with a spatula.
• Add the dried spices, diced tomatoes, broth, and spaghetti (broken in half). Stir everything and push the spaghetti down until it's submerged in the broth. If needed, add more broth or water 1/4 cup at a time until the spaghetti is just barely covered by the liquid.
• Cover with a lid and bring the mixture to a simmer (this should take about 2-3 minutes). Stir the pasta to make sure it's not sticking to the bottom, replace the lid, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the canned coconut milk or heavy whipping cream, replace the lid again, and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the noodles are tender to your liking.
• Remove from heat, uncover, and add the lemon juice (or vinegar) + grated cheese. Stir well, taste and (if needed) add more salt or lemon juice. Let the spaghetti sit for 5-ish minutes so the sauce can thicken up. Ladle into bowls and (optional) top with extra cheese, cracked black pepper & olive oil.

20-MINUTE INSTANT POT SPAGHETTI WITH SAUSAGE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Roll the sausage into 16 balls (each about 1 ounce and 1 inch in diameter). Set a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® to high saute (see Cook's Note). Add the olive oil to the pot; once it's shimmering, add the meatballs and cook until lightly browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Flip the meatballs and add the garlic. Cook until meatballs are lightly browned on the other side and the garlic is tender, 1 to 2 minutes more. Lay the spaghetti on top of the meatballs, then add the tomato puree, 2 cups of water, basil, red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Stir gently, making sure all the spaghetti is submerged in the sauce.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 6 minutes. After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete (this should take about 2 minutes). Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid, then stir in the Parmesan. Serve with another sprinkle of grated Parmesan on top. The pasta sauce will thicken as it sits and cools.

ONE-POT SPAGHETTI WITH MEAT SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine ground sausage, onions, and garlic in a large pot or skillet with tall sides. Cook over medium heat until sausage is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Stir water, pasta sauce, and Italian seasoning into the pot; bring to a boil. Stir in spaghetti noodles, return to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are cooked through and sauce has thickened, 17 to 20 minutes.
• Serve topped with grated Parmesan cheese.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE ONE-POT PASTA

Steps:

• In 8-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Toast bread crumbs in butter 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned. Transfer to small bowl; set aside.
• In 5-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add sausage; cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Using slotted spoon, transfer to bowl; cover and keep warm. Add onions, bell pepper, Italian seasoning and salt to oil and drippings in pan; cook over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes or until softened and starting to brown.
• Stir in broth and tomatoes; heat to boiling. Stir in pasta; return to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 18 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is cooked to desired tenderness and sauce is thickened. Stir in sausage. Stir in spinach; continue to stir 30 to 60 seconds or until wilted.
• Remove from heat; top with cheese. Top with basil and toasted bread crumbs.

ONE-POT PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 12-inch, deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid or a Dutch oven over medium-high until shimmering. Use your hands to pull the sausages apart into small pieces; add to the skillet and cook untouched for 1 minute.
• Continue to cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, stirring at 1-minute intervals and breaking up the sausage into 1/2-inch chunks, until browned and crispy on the outside with no pink remaining. If you have more than 1 tablespoon of fat in the pan, drain the excess.
• Carefully pour in the passata (it may splatter), then add the cumin, red-pepper flakes and 2 cups water, stirring to combine. Season with salt and increase the heat to bring to a boil.
• Add the pasta, coating it with the liquid. (It won't be fully submerged, and that's OK.) Adjust the heat to maintain an active simmer with small bubbles forming on the surface. Cover and let cook, stirring every few minutes to make sure nothing is sticking at the bottom of the pan, until the pasta is al dente, about 1 minute less than the package instructions. If the pasta is still hard at this point, add a few tablespoons of warm water at a time and cook until just al dente. Depending on your pasta size and shape, you may need to add several tablespoons of water.
• When the pasta is just al dente, reduce the heat to low and season to taste with salt. Stir in the spinach in batches, and cook, uncovered, until most of the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute more. (It will continue to wilt in the heat of the pasta after you serve it.) If the pasta seems too dry, add 1 tablespoon warm water at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
• Divide pasta among serving bowls and top with Parmesan.

CREAMY ITALIAN SAUSAGE ONE-PAN PASTA

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the sausage and cook until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and cook until softened and translucent and the sausage is well browned, another 5 to 7 minutes. Add the oregano, fennel seeds, red pepper flakes, garlic and some salt and black pepper and stir again.
• Next, add the broth, tomato puree and tomato paste and stir well. Add the uncooked pasta into the sauce, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the mozzarella and mascarpone. Taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Serve with shaved Parmesan and torn basil leaves.

CREAMY ONE-POT PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND SQUASH

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium heavy pot over medium-high. Cook sausage, breaking up into about 1" pieces with a wooden spoon, until well browned, 5-7 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, until evenly distributed, about 1 minute.
• Combine milk, cream, and 2 cups water in a large bowl or glass measuring cup. Stirring sausage mixture constantly, slowly stream in milk mixture; bring to a simmer. Add 1 1/4 cups Parmesan and cook, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted. Add squash, pasta, garlic, sage, salt, and nutmeg and toss to combine, making sure pasta is covered with liquid. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and bring to a bare simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is cooked through, squash is beginning to break down, and sauce is reduced and glossy, about 20 minutes.
• Pluck out and discard sage. Transfer pasta to a platter. Top with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and a few cranks of pepper.
