Cavatappi is the perfect shape to embrace the sausage, kale, and light tomato cream sauce in this dish. It comes together quick so you can have a hearty meal ready in no time.
Ingredients
Copy Ingredients
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic clove, minced
1 shallots, peeled and sliced
1 pound Italian sausage, hot or mild, casing discarded
1 bunch fresh kale, tough stems and center ribs removed, leaves coarsely chopped *See cook's note below
1/4 cup water
2 cups cavatappi pasta, cavatelli or gemelli cooked and drained
1 (28 ounce) can
Tuttorosso® Peeled Plum Tomatoes
1/3 cup half & half
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Heat oil in large skillet over moderately high heat until hot, but not smoking.
Add garlic and shallot and cook for 2 minutes; stir so garlic doesn’t burn.
Add sausage, breaking up with a wooden spoon until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add kale and water to skillet and sauté, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until the kale is tender and wilting.
Drain off 2 tablespoon of tomato juice and then add entire can of tomatoes to skillet. Break up tomatoes with back of spoon so the tomatoes are in large chunky pieces.
Simmer for a few minutes and then swirl in half and half; stir into sauce.
Add pasta to skillet, tossing until well combined.
Season with salt and black pepper and top with cheese.
Cook's Note
Give your kale a quick massage - once you have the kale stems removed and leaves chopped, squeeze the leaves until they are fairly soft. This ensures you have tender kale in your dish.
