Pasta with Chicken, Sausage, Mascarpone, Sundried Tomatoes and Kale
1 lb. large shell pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/4 cup finely-chopped sundried tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
pinch red pepper flakes
2 cups (or so) stemmed kale, chopped (you could use fresh spinach)
zest and juice of one lemon
8 oz. mascarpone, room temp.
1/4 cup shredded parmesan, more for garnish
2 cooked, seasoned chicken breasts, sliced*
2 cooked sausages, sliced*
Cook the pasta according to package instructions, then drain.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the onions until
tender. Add the garlic, sundried tomatoes, pepper, red pepper flakes, and kale
and saute until the kale is wilted and tender. Add the lemon zest and juice, and
remove from the heat. Stir in the mascarpone and parmesan until the cheese is no
longer lumpy.
Combine the vegetable and cheese mixture with the cooked pasta and the
chicken and sausage pieces. Stir gently to combine. Garnish with another
sprinkle of parmesan before serving.
*I happened to have these things leftover in the fridge that needed to be used up. Throw in whatever extra protein(s) you have from summer grilling. And actually, it tastes fabulous without any meat at all, if you don't have any on hand. Make it for Meatless Monday!
