Hot Italian Sausage and Tomato Pasta

 Time : 20 Minutes             Make 4 servings

1     pound dry fettuccine 
3    tablespoons olive oil
 1   medium red onion,
 sliced 1 clove garlic, 
smashed 4 hot Italian sausages, casings removed
 1    pint red or yellow cherry tomatoes 
2    tablespoons red wine vinegar
 3/4    teaspoon kosher salt 
1/4     teaspoon black pepper
 1/2    cup fresh basil leaves
, torn 1 cup arugula, 
torn 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Cook the fettuccine according to the package directions. Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion softens, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook about 5 minutes, using a wooden spoon to crumble it. Add the tomatoes and cook until the skins burst, about 8 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the cooked fettuccine, basil, and arugula and toss gently to combine. Serve in bowls and top with the Parmesan.

Tip: Vegetarians can omit the sausage. Try adding 3/4 cup Feta cheese to the pasta and greens.
