Yes, I dare say yummiest! This dish is a creamy Italian sweet sausage pasta sauce over al dente rigatoni, and it’s the comfort food to end all comfort foods. Deeeliishhh! It’s day 3 of our 6 courses in 6 days and this won’t fail to impress! So grab your vino and meet me in the kitchen!
This dish takes you all the way to Italy and back again! Thanks to Fr. Leo for creating this 6 course meal in 1 day! So today is day 3 and you’ll find that the creaminess of this sauce meets the savory notes of the Italian sausage, and your taste buds and house guests won’t believe it’s real! It seems too good to be true, but it is… mind blown, I know.
So for the sweet sausage pasta sauce you’ll need:
– sweet Italian sausage– 1/2 cup of finely chopped white onion
– one clove crushed fresh garlic
– white wine (compliments the sweetness of the sausage)
– pinch or two of crushed red pepper
– 2 tablespoons of salted butter
– 2 tablespoons of flour
– 1/2 cup finely cut fresh parsley
– 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
– sea salt
– fresh cracked black pepper
– rigatoni pasta (cooked al dente)
Cut each Italian sausage length wise just deep enough so that you’re able to remove the outer casing. Drop the sausage into a sauce pan and cook on medium heat. As it cooks it will crumble a part, when you see the sausage is just about done, add in the onion and garlic.
Stir. Then add in JUST enough white wine into the pot to cover the sausage and let the wine cook out over HIGH heat. It will boil, let it cook for about 7 minutes and then lower the heat. Slowly add in the flour (dusting it in) and stir, this will thicken the mixture. Add in your butter and fresh parsley, and then add in the heavy whipping cream and turn the heat to LOW so that you don’t cook the cream out.
Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and allow the mixture to come to a soft boil over LOW heat.
Remove from heat after a few minutes of boiling, and then pour on top of a bed of al dente rigatoni pasta! Try not to get too addicted to this sauce and want to put it over everything! I know I did!
Sending out a big ol’ hug to Fr. Leo for making my bday night so incredible with all this food! 3 more days of this! Be sure to check out Grace Before Meals for more recipes and I’ll see you right back here tomorrow for another mouth watering recipe!
Have a delicious kind of day yo!
