You can cook Spinach and Sausage Pasta with 8 Ingredients and 5 steps. See the following guide!
Ingredients for Spinach and Sausage Pasta:
- 14 1/2 oz Box of Penne Pasta.
- 1 lb Spicy Italian Sausage Links.
- 1 1/2 cup Shredded Parmesan Blend.
- 4 1/2 oz baby spinach.
- 4 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin.
- 4 garlic cloves.
- 1 tbsp fresh cracked pepper.
- 1 tsp salt.
Step by step how to cook Spinach and Sausage Pasta:
- In a large pot, cook the entire box of pasta according to the directions on the box. When the pasta is finished cooking, drain well in a colander then return to the pot for later use (do not keep it over heat after returning to the pot)..
- While the pasta cooks, slice the sausage links on a diagonal and cook in a medium skillet over medium heat. The sausage will look browned and glossy when it is done cooking..
- Slice the garlic cloves into "chips". In a small skillet, heat the garlic chips in the 4 Tbsp. of olive oil over medium-low heat. Simmer the garlic until it becomes soft and golden brown. The garlic infused oil will become a simple "sauce" for the pasta..
- Add the cooked sausage, garlic and oil, salt and fresh pepper to the pot containing the cooked pasta. Stir well..
- Turn the burner on to low heat. Add the fresh spinach and stir until the spinach is wilted (this will take a minute or two). Once the spinach has wilted, turn off the burner and add the cheese. Stir well..
