Preparation

Step 1

1. Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package label directions, adding broccoli for last 3 minutes of cooking. Drain well in a colander.

2. In a medium nonstick skillet, warm 1 Tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, turning frequently, for 10-12 minutes until well browned and cooked through. Transfer sausage to a cutting board. When cool enough to handle, cut sausage crosswise into 1/2 inch thick slices.
