Italian Sausage with Broccolini and Grapes

Heat 2 Tbs. oil in a medium skillet over medium high. Add the broccolini and saute until crisp-tender, 3 minutes. Throw in a little pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from pan and cover to keep warm in a bowl.

Back in the skillet add the sausage. Break up with a wooden spoon and saute until browned all over. If you need to add a smidge more oil, that’s fine. Toss in the grapes and another pinch of salt and pepper, cook 2 more minutes. Remove from skillet and add to the broccolini bowl.

Back in the skillet, add the last Tbs. oil. Toss in the onions and cook until they start to soften, 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the wine and cook 2 minutes, until it’s burned off. Then add the broccolini and sausage mixture back to the skillet. Toss in the vinegar, give it a good toss and you’re done!

Taste it. Salt? Maybe, maybe not.

Serve it with parmesan cheese, which I TOTALLY forgot about and cried buckets as soon as dinner was over.
