Pasta with Spicy Sausage, Radicchio, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Ingredients for Pasta with Spicy Sausage, Radicchio, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

• 450g casarecce or other short pasta

• Kosher salt

• 60ml olive oil

• 1 large onion, thinly sliced

• 450g spicy Italian sausage, casings removed

• 575g radicchio, cored, coarsely chopped (about 1675ml )

• 120ml thinly sliced drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes

• Freshly ground black pepper

Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 180ml pasta cooking liquid; return pasta to pot.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add onion and 1/4 teaspoons salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes (do not brown). Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up sausage into small bits with a wooden spoon, until sausage is mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add radicchio and 2 tablespoons water. Cook, covered, until sausage is cooked through and radicchio is wilted, 3–5 minutes more.

Add tomatoes, sausage mixture, and 120ml pasta cooking liquid to pot with pasta. Season with salt and pepper, toss to coat, and add remaining 60ml pasta cooking liquid, if needed. Divide among serving plates and top with pepper.
