I've always been fascinated by Fire Island, and thought the name was fitting for this slightly spicy pasta dish. —Candace Reed, DeSoto, Texas
Ingredients:
1 pound plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon plus 1-1/2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces uncooked ziti
1 cup fresh broccoli florets
1/2 pound johnsonville® mild italian sausage links links, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons grated romano or parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Toss the tomatoes with 1 tablespoon oil, garlic and salt. Place cut side down in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 450° for 20-25 minutes or until tender. Chop when cool enough to handle.
2. Cook ziti according to package directions, adding broccoli during the last 4 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage in remaining oil until no longer pink. Add pepper flakes; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in tomatoes and heat through.
3. Drain ziti mixture; toss with sausage mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 2 servings.
