This recipe for poblano sausages grilled and served over a market-fresh creamed corn and pasta makes a summer guilty indulgence look pretty darned good.

Sometimes you just need a little creamed corn. It’s as simple as that. But when you make creamed corn look this sexy, suddenly that boring can a la Green Giant doesn’t look half as appealing. This recipe for market-fresh poblano sausages grilled and served over a market-fresh creamed corn and pasta concoction makes summer guilty indulgence look pretty darned good. If you get a large stash of corn before the sweet season is over, make sure to prep and freeze it. If you aren’t lucky enough to have someone show up with a sack of corn, use the frozen kernels. This is a judgement-free zone.

Now, bring on the fresh for dinner.

Poblano Sausage with Creamed Corn over Pasta

Experiment with different types of sausage. We had a wonderful fire roasted poblano one we were using for this dish – but almost any flavor would go great!

Ingredients

• 1 – 1 1/2 lbs fresh fire roasted poblanos and corn sausage
• 4 ears fresh sweet corn
• 8 oz dried pasta
• 1/4 cup pine nuts
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 pint grape tomatoes
• 1 shallot thinly sliced
• 1 1/2 cups light cream
• Salt and Pepper
• 1/2 teas freshly grated nutmeg
• 2 cups torn arugula
• 2 oz Parmesan cheese grated, for topping

Instructions

• Grill the sausage until cooked through. Wrap in alumiunum foil and keep warm while you prepare the creamed corn.
• Remove the husks and silks from the corn and cut the kernals from the cobs.
• In a large pot of salted water, boil pasta according to directions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Drain and rinse.
• Meanwhile, prepare the corn. In a large skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts for 2 to 4 minutes, until toasted. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Swirl the olive oil in the pan to coat. Add the corn kernals, tomatoes, and shallot. Cook until just browning, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring as needed. Add the light cream and pasta water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Reduce heat and allow to cook until thickened 5 minutes longer.
• Toss the drained pasta into the sauce and add the arugula.
• Slice the sausage thin and add it, as well as any accumulated juices to the corn mixture.
• Serve with Parmesan cheese on top and a sprinkle of the toasted pine nuts.
