Rigatoni With Cabbage And Fontina Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large pot over high heat. Add onions and cook until soft and beginning to brown, stirring frequently, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high. Add mushrooms and sauté until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add peppers and sauté until just soft, about 5 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid.
• Add reserved pasta cooking liquid and 2 teaspoons marjoram to skillet and stir, scraping up browned bits. Add drained pasta to sauce and toss to coat. Add 1 cup cheese; stir until melted. Transfer pasta to large bowl; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and 1 teaspoon marjoram.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook rigatoni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; saute chicken until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Add mushrooms to skillet; saute until mushrooms are tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic; saute until fragrant and golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir spaghetti sauce, half-and-half, and Italian seasoning into mushroom mixture; cook and stir over medium heat until sauce thickens, 10 to 15 minutes. Mix cooked chicken and spinach into sauce and cook until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes.
• Stir pasta into sauce and add mozzarella cheese; stir until cheese melts. Garnish dish with Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cook sausage, onions, and mushrooms until meat is browned. Drain off fat.
• Add both tomatoes to meat mixture. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes uncovered. Stir in cooked pasta.
• Stir in 1/2 of mozzarella cheese and all of parmesan. Toss well.
• Pour into 9 X 13" pan. Top with remaining cheese. Bake for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the rigatoni in well-salted water according to package directions, but drain while still quite al dente. (If directions call for 12 minutes cooking, cook for 10 instead.) Rinse pasta with cool water, then drain again and set aside.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut cauliflower in half from top to bottom. Cut out tough core and stem any extraneous leaves. Lay cauliflower flat side down and cut crosswise into rough 1/4-inch slices. Break into smaller pieces.
• Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a wide skillet over high heat. Add cauliflower slices, along with any crumbly pieces, in one layer. (Work in batches if necessary.) Let cauliflower brown and caramelize for about 2 minutes, then turn pieces over to brown the other side. Cook for another 2 minutes, or until the cauliflower is easily pierced with a fork. It's fine if some pieces don't brown evenly. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add capers, garlic, red pepper flakes, chopped sage, sage leaves and lemon zest and stir to coat.
• Put cooked cauliflower mixture in a large mixing bowl. Add cooked rigatoni and fontina and toss. Transfer mixture to a lightly oiled baking dish. Top with Romano cheese, then with bread crumbs and drizzle with about 1 tablespoon olive oil. (Dish may be completed to this point up to several hours in advance and kept at room temperature, covered.)
• Bake, uncovered, for about 20 minutes, until top is crisp and golden. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic and bacon, and cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon fat is rendered and garlic slightly browns, 10 to 12 minutes. Add peperoncino, letting it toast slightly, before stirring in.
• Add cabbage and mushrooms; season with salt. Briefly stir vegetables, cover, reduce heat slightly, cook for 4 minutes, and stir again. Repeat until vegetables have wilted and are mixed together. Continue to simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, for about 1 hour, adding 1/2 cup broth or water at a time, as necessary.
• Uncover pan, and cook, stirring frequently and moistening sauce with broth or water as needed, until cabbage is completely soft; remove from heat. Use immediately, or refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 1 week.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt. Add pasta; cook until al dente. Drain pasta, and transfer to cabbage mixture; toss to combine. Serve immediately sprinkled with cheese.
