Orecchiette With Sausage And Broccoli :-Creating a supper that is enjoyed by all members of the family may be a challenging task. There is a child who is content to consume something that the other child is “not in the mood for.” However, every once in a while, I come across a recipe that everyone adores, such as this orecchiette pasta dish that I modified from Lidia’s Italian Table, which was written by Lidia Bastianich. Not only does it take no more than twenty-five minutes to prepare, but it is a dish that is enjoyed by every member of the family, vegetables and all.

ingredients for orecchiette with sausage and broccoli

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Add salt to a large pot while the water is coming to a boil. Cook the orecchiette in accordance with the instructions that are printed on the package after you have added it.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, bring one tablespoon of olive oil to a temperature of medium-high as it is heating up.
  • During the cooking process, break up the sausage that you have added to the skillet with a spoon.
  • This should be done for five to six minutes, or until it has a light brown colour. The garlic should be added after the heat has been reduced to medium. Keep cooking for one more minute

 

  • Combine the remaining four tablespoons of olive oil with the broccoli, salt, and red pepper flakes, and then add to the pan.
  • While stirring the broccoli frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan to remove the yummy brown bits, cook the broccoli for three to four minutes, or until it reaches a tender-crisp consistency.
  • Stir the butter in until it melts, then add it to the mixture.
  • In order to minimise the amount of liquid in the sauce and make it more concentrated, let it cook for a few minutes.

 

  • After the pasta has been well drained, place it back into the pot. Half of the cheese, along with the sausage and broccoli mixture, should be added there. Mix thoroughly by tossing.
  • If you like, you can salt or pepper the dish more. You can either place them on a serving plate or in individual bowls, and then distribute the remaining grated cheese among the guests at the table.
  • freezer-friendly in nature This dish can be frozen for up to three months, and then it can be heated up on the stove from the freezer.
  • It is recommended that you add additional water or broth to the meal as you are heating it up if it become a little dry while it was frozen. When you reheat it, you should make sure that you do not continue to cook it any longer.
