Multigrain Fusilli With Sausage Peppers And Snow Peas Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Cook pasta according to package directions.
• 2. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Sauté 5-6 minutes or until tender.
• 3. Add peppers and snow peas. Sauté 3-4 minutes or until just softened.
• 4. Add sausage and sauté for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
• 5. Toss fusilli with sausage mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and crunchy, 5 to 7 minutes. Set the toasted breadcrumbs aside in a small bowl.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the peas and chicken stock to the skillet and simmer until the stock is hot, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the carrots and continue to simmer until the carrots are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cream and season with salt and pepper. (This is a good time to boil your pasta.) Simmer until the reduces by one-fourth, about 5 minutes. Set the sauce aside; cover and keep warm while you cook the pasta.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain and toss with the sauce, about half of the breadcrumbs and all of the mint.
• Divide the pasta into bowls and top with a sprinkle of the remaining breadcrumbs and some Parmigiano-Reggiano.
