1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Set up a large bowl filled with ice
water. Add broccolini to boiling water and cover. Cook for about 4 to 6
minutes or until bright green. Plunge cooked broccolini into prepared
ice water. Once cool, discard ice water and cut broccolini into 1-inch
pieces.
2. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add oil. Once oil is hot
and shimmering, add the blanched broccolini. Sauté 2 to 3 minutes,
and then add the wine and stock. Raise temperature to high and sauté
until liquids have evaporated. Reserve.
3. Preheat the Cuisinart
®
Convection Toaster Oven Broiler to 400°F
on Bake/Pizza. Line the baking pan with aluminum foil.
4. Put the sausage, pepper, onion and garlic with a pinch each of the salt
and pepper on the prepared baking pan. Carefully slide the pan into
the upper position and roast in the preheated oven for about 15
minutes, or until sausage and vegetables have browned. Remove and
reduce temperature to 350°F and slide the rack into the lower position.
5. In a large mixing bowl, toss the broccolini, roasted sausage and
vegetables, and the remaining ingredients until well combined.
6. Lightly coat a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Add the
pasta mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes,
or until cheeses are hot and bubbling.
