Why I Love This One Pan (Risotto Method) Italian Sausage Pasta

One Pot Sausage Pasta Recipe (Risotto Method)
Cooking the pasta in the same pan as all of your other ingredients, allows the pasta to suck in all of the flavours. So instead of having pasta in a sauce - the pasta tastes like the sauce. Here's the catch - you need to watch this closely as it cooks, since you'll need to stir and add more liquid as needed, you will also need to weigh the dry pasta… since a cup of bowtie pasta that we may have, will be completely different than the cup of bowtie pasta that you have. This is a simple one pot pasta recipe, that is more of a pasta cooking technique - the risotto pasta cooking technique. This leads to an easy one pot weeknight dinner idea.
Ingredients:
30 mL (2 Tbsp) olive oil
2-3 spicy Italian sausages
1 onion, sliced
250 mL (1 cup) white wine
675 mL (3½ cups) chicken broth
300g (10 oz) bowtie pasta
250 mL (1 cup) frozen peas
250 mL (1 cup) chopped broccoli
125 mL (½ cup) 35% cream
Grated Parmesan or Pecorino cheese to taste
Method:
Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
Fry sausage until browned all over then add onion and cook until golden.
Deglaze the pan with the wine, then add 3 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil.
Add pasta; cover and cook over medium heat, stirring and adding remaining broth as liquid is absorbed; until pasta is cooked through and most of the broth is absorbed.
Stir in peas and broccoli and cook until broccoli is tender crisp.
Stir in cream, and grated cheese; cook and stir until the sauce comes together and thickens slightly.

I noticed that Auto -Correct changed Parmesan to Ptarmigan in the on-screen recipe... I probably wouldn't grate Ptarmigan over this dish (Parm or Pecorino are better choices) , but subbing ground Ptarmigan for the sausage in this recipe would work great.

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

🤣

[@LBrobie]

😂 that made me laugh. gotta love that auto-correct! 🧀

[@GrizzAxxemann]

@@bsteven885 In my experience, Ptarmigan tastes much like Grouse. It'll be fine.

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

@@bsteven885 ptarmigan is a bird, and pretty tasty. But hunting it is restricted in many parts of the word because of population decline. I believe it’s the territory bird for Nunavut in Canada’s North. The wood grouse in Canada’s near North is often called ptarmigan, but I don’t think they are closely related, it’s more closely related to the wild turkey.

[@fluffycritter]

I had never considered eating ptarmigan until now.

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

"It'll be fine.". My favorite Glen-ism.

[@smead7]

My favorite is the "mmhmm" proceeded by a little shuffle back and forth. Then you know it's something good.

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

@@smead7 And the Glen happy bob when it's tasty!

[@ChurchladyHmm]

Bless you Glen. I needed some 1 pot meals right now (I broke my leg and hubby can't wrangle more than one pot because he is a destroyer of things and not a builder of them). You guys are the best

[@CrazyAuntVal]

Love the simplicity of this dish, especially after a long day @ work. It sounds like a great way to use up 'extra' (AKA day-old) veggies out of the garden. "Never limit the number of vegetables you add." Jules, I couldn't agree more!

[@itzel1735]

I made this same style of pasta this week with pork sausage, mushrooms and asparagus. So versatile. So easy.

[@evasokolek4616]

Yum

[@annies2416]

I know the recipe is great when Glen does his Happy Dance after the first bite! 😀

[@phyllisreinking4208]

Appreciate your honesty. I always know if you love something, if it needs an alteration or if it’s just a fail. This pasta dish looks absolutely delicious and easy.

[@Meggs23]

These are my favorite Glen videos... a simple meal with a handmade item. I miss your meat videos. Thank you for the sausage idea! :)

[@chuckismyYTname]

I'm dying. I raised my quality to 1080p thinking it was my phone hahaha. Idk why that made me laugh so much. Great video per usual !

[@deb.m.7458]

Really appreciate the one pot meal. I’m tired at the end of the day. Throwing something together that tastes really good makes my day. The inflation pandemic is a real downer. In economic lockdown (watching the budget). I could throw just about anything in this and my family would be well fed. Thank you 🙏

[@oreally8605]

When you see the Glen dance 🕺 you know its good 👍

[@anthonydolio8118]

Isn't interesting how something so simple can be so tasty? The two of you were nodding your head as to say, "yes," the whole time you were test tasting. I love it. Thanks.

[@cydrych]

The last two days meals have been made with a Texas style sausage that I had leftover when my sausage stuffing equipment decided to stop working. Yesterday I made a soup using homemade pork stock, sausage and some vegetables from the garden. Today was meatloaf using more vegetables from the garden and glazed with a homemade bbq sauce with bacon (home cured and smoked) and bourbon in it. Some of my favorite meals have been made from leftovers. I still have a bit of the sausage left so I’ll try this recipe soon. Thanks.

[@michaelreid8857]

Spinach and dried tomatoes would be awesome!

[@slugore]

This is going into the rotation, for sure.

[@TizianaTina]

One pot meals are the best!

[@ldg2655]

That looks delish! I love cooking like that… a little of this, a little of that.. whatever you have..

[@reginaoverton5657]

Your show is my favorite cooking show including Food Network shows. You are authentic and you don’t have to be perfect. Plus, your mistakes make me feel better as human being!!! Love you and Julie’s banter. Keep up the great work!!!

[@peterlamarche247]

Cleaning out the freezer, just made this with Moroccan spiced bison sausage. Versatile method.

[@johngoode8391]

Just did it with venison burger, rotini noodles and kale……delicious “ use what you have “😊

[@joanng8601]

So I have made a similar dish for sad to say decades-instead of meat for this I use mushrooms, and it is always cauliflower and broccoli and while I do add additional cheese I also add more anchovies for a stronger alfredo presence . Thanks for the reminder Dinner tomorrow

[@rodbo]

Nice job, Thanks from Sandy, Oregon

[@rabidsamfan]

Yum! I was thinking grown up Hamburger Helper and then you said it and I cracked up.

[@dougpearce8019]

I made it dinner tonight and it is quite tasty. The next time I make it I'm going to use low sodium chicken broth and then add salt to taste. Thanks for sharing Glen.

[@antonellaprovenzano270]

Great one pot meal Thank you!

[@mcguiganmike]

Thanks, made this last night and we loved it. I did leave out the cream, but added a pat of butter. Enough for two nights!

[@MaxPower-nw8id]

Inspired by your recipe, my girlfriend and I just made this and it's delicious. The only change we made was that we used a bag of frozen broccoli and cauliflower. Thanks for the inspiration Glenn.

[@yvonnetomenga5726]

@Glen and Friends Cooking • This is just the recipe I've been looking for. I confess to purchasing Hamburger Helper for the convenience. The real mystery to me was how much water/stock to add because it's obviously less than the cook alone recommendation for pasta. Can't wait to try this with all its potential variations. 👍

[@CharlottePrattWilson]

Hmmm, I wonder if I could use some of my leftover Thanksgiving turkey?😊

[@ComboNation8]

I've been cooking pasta roughly this way for years only I use plain water, not broth or wine, and it works well without wasting water. It's also traditionally Italian in some parts of Italy.

[@pattynabozny1503]

Yum! This is quite close to a dinner I frequently make - using kielbasa, sausage, ground beef…; however, I just Chuck in a block of cream cheese at the end and stir/melt it in. Hubby loves it, so do I.

[@joeyhardin1288]

Thank you. God Bless and stay safe.

[@Lantanana]

Looks like a good recipe, and I like sausage a lot, and would probably use that!

[@grahamrankin4725]

Will probably do this week.

[@doveandolive1153]

Loving this recipe! I enjoy Friday night pasta and a glass of wine ♥ Quick, easy, tasty and comforting so what is not to like! Have a couple of favorites on rotation gonna try this out next week (sub for a Farfalle, pancetta and peas with your recipe 😋) This week's was linguini, canned clams with juice, garlic, parsley and chopped up swiss chard and laughing cow cheese, freshly ground pepper. Don't knock it until you try it 😀

[@EastSider48215]

Who would knock that? It sounds delicious!

[@abcxyz1797]

Delicious visually, simple to make!

[@mjcole1620]

Looks great. Definitely going to give this a try

[@ladylilac4363]

Glen, my first thought too...home made, gourmet, "hamburger helper" I like this version 1000x times better!!!

[@SeventhSwell]

Gonna have to try this ... with mushrooms.

[@mom4him27]

Thank you for the inspiration! I am making the dish right now using left over turkey, peas, green beans and penne noodles, with the spices being lemon pepper and garlic.

[@robertsieber8374]

Very good. Just made it tonight!

[@johnmckenzie4639]

Nice recipe Glen. Grated Ptarmigan eh? I hear they put up quite a squawk.

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

🤣

[@lisacraze1]

So delicious looking!

[@1929modelagirl]

What a lovely change of taste. I cook for one, so this sounds like wonderful leftovers . . . !

[@murlthomas2243]

I have an almost identical recipe that I was making tomorrow, after we finish the Turkey leftovers. Wonderful stuff! I’m making mine with yellow squash, which I have lots of…

[@coolkitchenofficial]

Looks so so tasty! 👏

[@carolnavan4137]

Yum, looks great. Going to try this for supper. Thanks.

[@larsen8059]

I make something with a similar result, but always cooked the pasta separately. I'm going to try this one pot method. Thanks Glen!

[@Sk8free09]

Doing it tomorrow!

[@pflick13]

That looks sooo good!

[@austin2842]

Looks good.

[@jasonclark1149]

I've been making this for a while; it works with just about any veg. The recipe I started from used arugula, but the store was out that day so I subbed turnip greens. One of the best things I've ever eaten. Any time I see turnip greens at the store now I make this. Swiss Chard also works very well as you suggested. I've never added cream but I think I'll try it next time. Great vid as always.

[@islatheremin]

lovely as usual❤

[@seano4977]

I bet that's delicious. I checked the original video for the sausage. You both look so young! (Not to say you both look old now by the way lol. ) Thanks for another great video.

[@NorbertFuto]

That looks yum, I will try it with my son. Do you have a take on broccoli, sweetcorn and tuna pasta?

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Thank you for demonstrating another fine dish! I am trying to imagine another color of vegetable that would suit and would also vary the look of the peas and broccoli. I guess that any of the colored bell peppers would do. Roasted red peppers would make the dish seem a bit 'heavy.'

[@robininva]

You both were hungry! I’m going to make this!

[@olivemiller4805]

Looks yum! I would have to find a different veg other than broccoli, my hubby can't/won't eat it.

[@mariabruni3412]

Love the ridges on the farfalle pasta. What brand did you use?

[@stephiek.3267]

Love the simplicity of this recipe. Can you tell me the size of your Le Creuset braiser? Looking to expand my collection, but not sure on size.

[@billjoyce]

I have made something similar using cut up asparagus as the veggies.

[@obtuse186]

I do a similar thing but I cook the pasta in the stock halfway then transfer the semi-cooked pasta into a frying pan with some variation of meat, getting some colour onto the pasta. Then gradually add in stock whilst stirring constantly. I always called it the carbonara method but I guess it is closer to a risotto.

[@CAP198462]

This looks like a good “clean out the refrigerator” meal. Throw what you’ve got in, as long as the stock, wine, and pasta are there it’s 👍.

[@RichWellner]

I may have to make this at camp sometime... Looks super tasty. I'm glad you put the warning about the focus on screen, I thought the tequila was kicking in too hard for a moment...

[@rebeccaturner5503]

So glad you made note of the lost focus...I thought it was my eyes!lol

[@d14551]

Thanks, Glen, now I know why the pasta in my turkey soup took so long to cook, I kept adding cold bone broth. Duh!

[@figmo397]

I like doing this kind of thing with rainbow pasta and rainbow chard. Also, in the US they sell loose Italian sausage, so I'd guesstimate you used around a cup of loose sausage, based on what it looked like (2-3 sausages is such a rough estimate since you don't know the size of them!).

[@jgranahan]

Hi Jules, hi Glen!!

[@jimsackerman]

Thank you for the out of focus warning.... Saved me a few hours of troubleshooting to figure out what's KZbin dropped the quality to 240p all of the sudden 😂

[@coloringanddoodling9751]

HA, when you said the risotto method, I instantly thought, the Hamburger Helper method.

[@jamesvegeais6675]

Lol. That was my first thought as you added the pasta - hamburger helper

[@Carblesnarky]

My father does something similar but because we didn't grow up eating pork, he uses hamburger instead with a bit more spices.

[@adamwelch4336]

I make something similar but with chicken 🍗 broccoli 🥦 and cheddar cheese 🧀

[@mac8697]

Well, I guess next time I cook pasta I know what I'm gonna make!

[@staceyn2541]

So glad I watched till then end cuz I was thinking, this isn't the risotto method fancy pants, it's straight up just bougie Hamburger Helper! Still looks tasty though!

[@pierzollo]

The ingredients used are so good that I actually don't mind how the pasta is cooked.

[@trenvan5546]

simmered in sauce pasta is amazing.. you should try it.

[@AliMoeeny]

sorry to hear you had a rough week. hope everything is okay now

[@daviddreves5924]

Needs carrots for a bit of colour +I like carrots good work I will give it a go keep up the good work/videos

[@maurac953]

Just made this recipe last night and it was a winner for dinner. I'm always looking for a great one-pot meal and this one was fab. Thanks for sharing, Glen!!

[@patrickdurham8393]

Grated ptarmigan? Where do you even get those?

[@mocowan6642]

You can always tell when Glen likes something because he starts bouncing when he eats it!

[@ubombogirl]

throw in some mushrooms and ya got yourself a deal! yum-e!

[@janetrothwell4448]

Another great video. Please check the spelling of Parmesan in your recipe on the screen. I don’t think you want to add a bird to this dish.

[@mcmd2009]

I had an uncle Carmine also.

[@marymaryquitecontrary9765]

Honestly, this method reminds me of making hamburger helper...

[@mikeclarke952]

Just an FYI and with the cost of food these days. Pork goes on sale every January, you can grab a whole leg for a fraction of what it would cost.

[@ledzep331]

Saag Aloo is my, pseudo healthy, comfort food equivalent.

[@TheKegtwo]

I think some asparagus would add a richness to the dish.

[@trailduster6bt]

The green you forgot to mention was ESCAROLE!

[@austin2842]

Challenge for you, Glen: a vegetarian version that achieves similar results?

[@EastSider48215]

Make it with tofu that’s been frozen, then marinated and baked. It involves a bit more work, but I typically have that on hand anyway, since it’s a staple in my house.😊

[@peterlamarche247]

Exchange chicken broth for vegetable drop the sausage add more veg.

[@caroleannseaton9178]

Looks good. I will make enough for me, not hubby's taste.

[@phranerphamily]

So basically the original hamburger helper 😁

[@amacaddict]

the hamburger helper method, and I think one of the best things you can do is teach people how to do it at home.

[@bethgoldman2560]

Well…I have some sweet Italian sausage that needs some cooking……..

[@robertpace901]

A little light on the cheese if you ask me, but I'm half Sicilian.

[@luadraponies]

It is an economical dish…watched your depression potato soup but soon realised that the price of potatoes here, you need to rice and flour.

[@peterdoe2617]

With greetings from the far north of Germany: have you found mr. Scott Rea, here on youtube? A british butcher. I have his book "the mercant of venison" (Sold out, surely.) He has vids about making sausage. To an extent, when I bought myself a sausage filler (for the lack of better words) You will like his channel! He just launched a video about making sausage from pheasant.

[@darrellbedford4857]

Must be good, between his happy dance and him stuffing his face he had a hard time answering Julie. Thanks again. I like hie alternative ingredient suggestions.

[@katielin2379]

Yes, it's grown up hamburger helper. True.

[@Chico-td2fy]

I call it better than hamburger helper....lol
