How to Make Baked Sausage And Garbanzo Bean Rollups Ragu
- Cut 1 pound Italian sausage into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes, until browned.
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can garbanzo beans (drained and rinsed), 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs to the skillet. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (24-ounce) jar Ragu® pasta sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid evaporates slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Stir in 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts; pulse mixture in a food processor until coarsely ground. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to cool completely.
- For the dough: In a large bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 cup olive oil, and 3/4 cup warm water. Mix with a wooden spoon until a dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Brush dough with 1 tablespoon olive oil, wrap in plastic wrap, and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use a 5-inch round cutter to cut out circles.
- Place about 1 tablespoon of the cooled filling in the center of each circle. Fold dough over filling to form a half-moon shape, crimping the edges to seal.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease.
- Place rollups on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
