First, here are the ingredients you will need to re-create this orecchiette dish:
While the pasta is cooking, Biegel poured the oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, she added in her sausage (cut into large chunks) and let it brown. She then removed the sausage to a separate bowl.
She added the chopped onions to the fat in the pan to cook until softened. Biegel stirred in the garlic for 30 seconds before adding in the tomatoes and red pepper flakes. After about 4 minutes, the tomatoes started to blister and split, meaning that it was time to throw in the beans and return the cooked sausage to the skillet.
Before draining the pasta, Biegel scooped a half-cup of pasta water (which Giada calls “gold”) to pour into her skillet. Then, she added the drained orecchiette to the skillet and tossed it with the rest of the ingredients until the pasta was completely coated. She added in her grated Parmesan cheese in batches, letting each batch melt before adding more to stir into the mixture. Finally, she stirred in the parsley. At the end, she topped off her dish with more Parmesan before serving.
This comforting pasta dinner is made with such ease that it’s perfectly suitable for weeknights. For an even easier version that only uses one pot, try ourCreamy One-Pot Orecchiette with Sausage & Peas.
