This incredibly easy Italian Orecchiette with Sausage recipe is jam-crammed with more nutrition and more flavor than you’d ever guess – even we were surprised!
In a large skillet, sauté garlic and onion for 2-3 minutes in olive oil, until lightly browned. Add sausage and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until sausage is no longer pink.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil, and cook orecchiette until al dente. Drain pasta and add to pan with sausage mixture. Simmer for another 2 minutes.
If you happen to have leftovers from this recipe, we found that adding just a little bit of additional leftover vegetable broth loosens and remoistens this pasta beautifully during reheating.
