Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 9 oz refrigerated three cheese tortellini I used tri-colored
- 14 oz smoked sausage or Polska kielbasa sliced into half moons
- 8 oz baby bella mushrooms roughly chopped
- 8 oz broccoli crowns cut into small florets
- ¼ medium yellow onion diced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic about 2 cloves
- ⅓ cup prepared pesto
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan
Instructions
- Slice sausage into half moons, and cut up the mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Start the olive oil heating in a 12″ cast iron skillet over medium heat when you’re almost done cutting up the veggies.
- Start water boiling for tortellini. Cook tortellini per package directions, then drain.
- While the pasta is cooking, add the sausage to the skillet and brown over medium heat for three minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the onion, broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic and continue to saute for another eight minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Turn off the heat under the pan and stir in the cooked tortellini and pesto until nicely combined. Sprinkle everything with shredded Parmesan.
- Move your skillet onto the middle rack of the oven and broil on high for four minutes to melt the Parmesan across the top. Serve.
