Orecchiette with Sausage and Chard
Italian sausage, Peppadew peppers and anchovies bring bold flavor to this quick weeknight meal. Sweet or hot Italian sausage work here. Orecchiette, or “little ears,” is a round pasta with that catches sauce with its cup-like shape; if orecchiette isn't available, farfalle is a good substitute. To separate the leafy part of the chard from the stem, cut along each side of the center vein of each leaf.

Tip
Don’t discard the chard stems; they add flavor and texture to the dish. Make sure to keep the stems and leaves separate after prepping because they go into the skillet at different times.

On-line Recipe Differs from What is Published in Milk Street Tuesday Nights Cookbook
I cooked this recipe from the cookbook and it was wonderful. However, I was surprised by the difference between the cookbook and what is on-line. Quantities and ingredients differ. That being said, the cookbook version had amazing flavor and was devoured by all. I gave it only 4 stars because of the amount of prep and number of bowls and plates I had to use in the preparation of this dish.

Flavorful dish that I would make again. I'd dial back on the garlic personally but the anchovies were a nice touch. Always amazed how just a little something like anchovies or fish sauce can add to a pasta dish.
