Creamy Sausage Farfalle Pasta with Spinach and Sundried Tomatoes

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground sausage
  • 1 pint heavy cream
  • Garlic (to taste)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 box farfalle pasta
  • 1 bag baby spinach
  • 1 cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
  • 5 oz Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • Olive oil
  • Optional: garlic bread sticks for serving

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Sausage:
    • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
    • Add the ground sausage to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
    • Once cooked, remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Pasta:
    • In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil.
    • Cook the farfalle pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. Make the Cream Sauce:
    • In the same skillet used for the sausage, add a bit more olive oil if needed.
    • Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet, sautéing for about a minute until fragrant.
    • Sprinkle the flour into the skillet and stir to combine with the oil and garlic, cooking for another minute.
    • Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
    • Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally until it starts to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Combine Everything:
    • Once the cream sauce has thickened, add the cooked sausage back into the skillet.
    • Stir in the cooked farfalle pasta, chopped sundried tomatoes, and baby spinach. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach has wilted.
    • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Finish and Serve:
    • Grate the Parmesan cheese over the pasta and stir until melted and well combined.
    • Remove from heat and serve immediately.
    • Optionally, serve with garlic bread sticks on the side for dipping into the creamy sauce.

Enjoy your creamy sausage farfalle pasta with spinach and sundried tomatoes! It’s a flavorful and comforting dish perfect for any occasion.
