Italian Pasta With Cabbage And Sausage Recipes

CABBAGE AND SMOKED SAUSAGE PASTA

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the bow tie pasta and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, olive oil, and cabbage; season with salt and pepper; cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the sausage and bow tie pasta; cook until completely heated, about 5 minutes more. Top with Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

PASTA WITH SAUSAGE, CARAMELIZED CABBAGE AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 7 minutes; drain.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium. Add the sausage and cook, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, until fully cooked and crumbled, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
• Add the cabbage, onion, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet. Cover and cook, stirring regularly, until the cabbage has completely wilted and starts to brown, about 15 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, goat cheese and reserved sausage until evenly combined. Stir in the pasta, season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

CABBAGE SAUSAGE SUPPER

• In a Dutch oven or soup kettle, cook sausage and onion over medium heat until sausage is lightly browned and onion is tender; drain. Add the cabbage and water. Cover and cook on low for 10 minutes. Stir in the carrots and potatoes. Cover and cook for 25-30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

SPAGHETTI WITH SWEET SAUSAGE AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta, and return to pot. Set aside.
• While pasta is cooking, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add sausage; cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to a plate; set aside (reserve skillet with rendered fat).
• To skillet, add onion, 2 tablespoons water, and as much cabbage as will fit; season with salt and pepper. Cover; cook until tender, tossing occasionally and adding more cabbage as space becomes available, 6 to 10 minutes.
• To pasta, add cabbage mixture and sausage. Toss with enough pasta water to create a sauce. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in vinegar.

ITALIAN SAUSAGES WITH CABBAGE AND ONION

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl put the onions, cabbage and garlic. Set aside.
• In a dutch oven, or other large vessel, put the olive oil. Slice the sausages (hot or mild) into bite-size pieces, adding more if you want more meat.
• Heat the oil over high heat, and when hot, add the sausage pieces and stir-fry until well browned.
• Add the ingredients from the mixing bowl, the salt, pepper, vinegar and water.
• Mix well for 2-3 minutes.
• Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. If needed, add a bit more water.
• When the cabbage is very tender, remove cover and increase heat to evaporate any excess liquid. Check for salt.
