One-Pot Orecchiette
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • salt to taste
  • 8 ounces spicy Italian sausages, casings removed
  • 3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided, or as needed
  • 1 1/4 cups orecchiette pasta, or more to taste
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped arugula, or to taste
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste
Instructions
1
Acquire the necessary components for preparation.\nHeat a generous amount of olive oil in a substantial, deep skillet over medium heat. Introduce the onion with a small amount of salt; cook and stir until the onion has become tender and transparent, taking approximately 5 minutes. Incorporate sausage into the mixture; cook until it has turned a rich brown color, lasting around 5 to 7 minutes.
2
Introduce 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth into the sausage mixture, causing it to reach a boiling point while utilizing a wooden spoon to scrape off any leftover food residue from the bottom of the pan.
3
Add orecchiette pasta to the skillet; cook and stir the pasta in the hot broth, adding additional broth when it becomes absorbed, until the pasta is cooked through and most of the liquid has been consumed, taking around 15 minutes.
4
Incorporate arugula into the sausage-pasta mixture; allow it to wilt before proceeding.
5
Transfer cooked pasta to bowls and top with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
