Bow Tie Pasta with Sausage and Broccoli

A bow tie pasta recipe that checks all the boxes if you want to cook a quick, one-pan dinner. This dish combines bite-size bow tie (farfalle) pasta with Italian sausage, tomatoes, and broccoli in a light, creamy sauce. It’s ready in 30-minutes!
This bow tie pasta with ground sausage is a family dinner stand-by, right up there with another of my favorite pantry pasta recipes — chicken pesto pasta that cooks in 10 minutes.
I used bow-tie (farfalle) pasta, but you can use your favorite dried short pasta shape. The pasta is coated in a lightly creamy sauce, with chunky bits of sausage, tangy-sweet sun-dried tomatoes and tender quick-cooking broccolini.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pound (450 g) uncooked Italian sausage, removed from casings
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped (1 cup)
- Kosher salt
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- ½-1 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes, to taste
- ½ cup (55 g) moist sun-dried tomatoes, sliced into ¼-inch pieces
- 2 cups (480 ml) chicken broth
- 1 bunch broccolini , stems trimmed, sliced into bite-size pieces
- 12 ounces (330 g) dried short pasta, such as penne, bowties or rigatoni
- 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
- ¼ cup (25 g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
