Rigatoni With Vodka Sauce And Spicy Sausage Food

CHICKEN SAUSAGE RIGATONI IN A SPICY VODKA SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to boil for the pasta. In a large saute pan over medium heat melt butter with oil. Add chicken sausage and brown, 3 to 4 minutes, breaking up large chunks with a wooden spoon. Add onions, jalapenos and garlic and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add green pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, to taste, and cook 3 minutes more.
• Generously salt the pasta water and add the rigatoni. Cook until al dente, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add tomatoes to the sauce and bring to a simmer, for about 10 minutes. Add vodka and cream and cook a few minutes more. Toss in cheese and chopped parsley. To serve, drain the pasta well and add to the sauce. Mix until pasta is nicely coated. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

SPICY RIGATONI ALLA VODKA

Steps:

• Add the pasta to a large pot of heavily salted boiling water. Cook according to the package instructions.
• In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the garlic. Continue to cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and chile paste and cook until the tomato paste begins to caramelize and slightly stick to the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Deglaze the pot with the vodka, releasing all the flavorful bits from the bottom. Continue to cook for 1 more minute. Add the heavy cream and stir to combine. Remove from the heat.
• Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water for later use, then drain the pasta. Add the pasta directly to the pot of sauce and toss to combine. Add 1/4 cup of the pasta water and 1/4 cup of the cheese. Continue to mix, slowly adding more pasta water as needed a splash at a time, until the desired sauce consistency is achieved. (Discard any remaining pasta water.) Top with fresh basil and more cheese.
