Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz Orecchiette pasta
  • 1 lb Italian sausage
  • 4 cups Spinach
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 4 cups Chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage from the pot and set aside.
  • In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until translucent for about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Stir in the orecchiette and pour in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the broth has reduced slightly.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the spinach and the cooked sausage. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and everything is heated through.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, drizzling a bit of olive oil on top if desired.
