Last Night's Dinner #136: Sundried Tomatoes & Sweet Sausage Penne
It was one of those nights where the stars were aligned - sundried tomatoes (check), Italian sausages (check), ricotta (check), fresh basil (nope - but dried will have to work)...
Sundried Tomatoes with Sweet Italian Sausages, one of my go-to pasta dishes. Quick, easy and very tasty.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes and a clove of crushed garlic to your olive oil and heat all three up at the same time. *You don't want the oil to be hot when you add the pepper/garlic.
When it all starts to sizzle, add a chooped onion. Cook until translucent then add a couple of handfuls of SD tomatoes.
Almost immediately add the sausages to the pan. Meat removed from casings and chopped up into bitesize pieces.
Add spices & seasoning
Let the artichokes brown slightly
Once the artichoke start to get a nice brownish crust to them, add some broth (any kind will do, even water if you don't have any broth), about a cup or so.
Add the artichoke hearts (thawed frozen ones or drained canned ones).
Add cream until pink...
It's not really a saucy sauce, so if you want a lot of liquid just add more broth/water + cream
Top with ricotta and your favorite salt!
