Megan Mitchell Instagram – Sunday dinner, my Creamy Mushroom and Sausage Pasta. Recipe👇🏼
Ingredients:
• EVOO, for drizzling
• 1.5 pounds sweet Italian turkey sausage (5 sausages removed from casings)
• 1 pound thinly sliced cremini and/or shiitake mushrooms
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp. finely minced thyme
• 1/2 tsp. red chili flakes
• 8.8 ounces mascarpone cheese, room temperature
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
• 1 pound bucatini pasta
Directions:
• Bring a large pot of water up to boil. Liberally season with salt
• While the water comes up to boil, make the sauce. Bring a 14-inch, high sided skillet up to heat over medium. Drizzle in 1-2 tbsp. EVOO and add in the sausage, breaking into smaller pieces. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and any liquid released has evaporated
• Next add in the mushrooms and sauté for 10 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally and adding more EVOO if the skillet looks too dry
• Season with salt and pepper then add in the thyme and chili flakes. Stir together and cook for 1-2 minutes more
• Turn the heat to low and add in the mascarpone and parmesan. Keep warm, stirring occasionally, while the pasta cooks
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook per package directions until al dente
• Add the pasta directly to the sausage and mushroom skillet along with 1 cup pasta cooking liquid
• Turn the heat up to medium, stir together and simmer until thick and creamy, about 1 minute
• Serve in shallow bowls with extra black pepper and parmesan cheese | Posted on 24/Sep/2023 20:47:32
