How to Make Tagliatelle With Smashed Peas Sausage And Ricotta Cheese Giada
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tagliatelle and cook according to package directions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the sausage to the skillet and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
- Add the peas to the skillet and use the back of a spoon to gently smash them. Cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the ricotta cheese until melted and combined with the peas.
- Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. Gradually add the reserved pasta water, 1/4 cup at a time, until the pasta is creamy and moist.
- Return the sausage to the skillet. Stir in the chopped basil, Pecorino Romano cheese, salt, and pepper.
- Toss gently to combine and serve immediately. Enjoy!
