2021-W38-R1 Chicken Sausage Penne Italiano

with Long Green Pepper & Parmesan

Here at EP, we’re certifiably OB-SESSED with penne—it’s a true winner when it comes to grabbing onto delicious sauces. One morning, as the chefs were dreaming up new ways to make that first place noodle as delicious as possible (the pasta-bilities seemed endless…), a lightbulb went off. Crispy chicken sausage met green pepper and a silky tomato sauce before getting tossed with linguine, and the rest was history. So good, it’s practically pre-pasta-rous.

Instructions

Step 1
1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. Core, deseed, and cut green pepper into a medium dice. Peel and finely chop garlic. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add green pepper and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until browned and slightly softened, 4-5 minutes.

Step 2

Once water is boiling, add pasta to pot. Cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water, then drain.

Step 3

While pasta cooks, add garlic to pan with green pepper; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add sausage and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Stir in tomato paste; cook for 1 minute.

Stir ½ cup plain water (¾ cup for 4 servings) into pan with sausage mixture. Simmer until thickened, 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in cream cheese, half the Parmesan (save the rest for serving), and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted. Season with salt and pepper.
