30 Minute Pasta: Orecchiette, Broccolini & Sausage, Learn How (e88)

Buon giorno a tutti. In this episode, 'Nonna Mia', la nonna di tutti (everybody's grandma), shares another quick and easy 30-minute pasta dish.
The ingredients list is simple:
- 1 pound of pasta (orecchiette)
- 1 pound of broccolini
- 2 pounds of pork sausage, casings removed
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- lemon zest, as desired
- grated cheese about 1/2 cup and more for sprinkling on plates
Bring pasta to a boil in a well-salted pot and while boiling, add some oil to the pot, add in the garlic, sauté briefly, then add in sausage meat, casings removed. Brown the sausage about 5 minutes and then remove.
In the same pot, begin sautéing the broccolini, then add water, to expedite their cooking. The broccolini should be cut into small, bite-sized pieces. It will take about 10 minutes.
Remove the pasta 1-2 minutes before instructed, from the boiling water. Then on the heat, blend in the broccolini, pasta and sausage together and stir. Add about a cup of pasta water, again, as desired.
Then, with the heat off, add in the 1/2 cup of grated cheese. Nonna uses Grana Padana today, but use whichever cheese you think is best. Last, but not least, add in some lemon zest, to suit your taste.
Plate and sprinkle on more cheese and enjoy!
Buon appetito!
