Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound bulk spicy pork sausage
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
  • 1 package (8 ounces) baby portabella (cremini) mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 ounces uncooked pappardelle pasta (or linguini)
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1/4 cup soft goat cheese, crumbled (2 oz)
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sausage, breaking it apart into small pieces. Cook 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the wine, garlic, shallots, mushrooms, thyme and red pepper flakes. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until the wine is reduced by about half. Add the chicken stock and butter and cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes or until the mixture is reduced by half.
  3. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the pasta as directed on the package until al dente; drain. Add the pasta to the skillet with the sauce; toss to coat.
  4. Transfer to a large serving bowl, top with tomatoes, goat cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

Italian pork sausage can be used in place of the spicy sausage for a milder meal.
