Gemelli with Spicy Sausage & Spinach

  • 1/2 lb. gemelli pasta
  • 1 T. olive oil
  • 1 sm. onion, chopped
  • 1 lb. spicy Italian sausages, casings removed (or cut-up chicken breasts)
  • 1 c. chicken broth
  • 1/2 c. heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 10 oz. baby spinach
  • Grated Parmesan
Cook pasta as directed on box.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, saute until brown. Add sausage and cook, crumbling with the spatula, until browned.

Stir in chicken broth, stirring to dissolve any browned bits in pan. Stir in cream and nutmeg; simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Place spinach in colander, drain pasta over the spinach to wilt it. Return pasta and spinach to pan, and toss with sausage mixture. Serve with grated Parmesan.
