I made some pasta and the good thing about this pasta recipe is you can pretty much throw in anything you want (it's one of those everything but the kitchen sink-type dealios). Enough talk, I'll just give you my recipe:
Riccioli Pasta with Polska Kielbasa
Ingredients:
Riccioli pasta
Kielbasa, cubed or sliced into half-moon shapes (yeah!)
Onion, diced
Zucchini, cubed or [again with the] half-moon shapes
Red bell peppers, sliced thinly and halfed
Olive oil
for seasoning: salt, pepper
(optional seasoning) red pepper flakes, oregano, parsley
(and... The Kicker:) Paul Newman's Sockarooni Sauce
Cook the pasta according to directions.
To start, heat up oil on a skillet and put all the vegetables in. You can add a little salt and pepper for seasoning and you want the vegetables to get soft. Remove from the pan. Add a little new oil (you do not need a lot) and put the kielbasa on. You'll want to cook this until it's brown on both sides.
When the pasta is done, drain and reserve 1 cup of pasta water. Return the pasta to the stockpot and add the vegetables and the kielbasa. Pour the sauce over it and add the optional seasonings if you'd like. You may want to toss it over low heat. Then it's ready to serve.
Paul Newman's Sockarooni Sauce is so rich in flavor... I think it's the all natural ingredients and I'm a huge fan of bell peppers--I even add my own fresh bell peppers to the mix. Yumm-o!!
