Instructions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat to cook pasta.
Step 2
Meanwhile, add oil to coat a large saute pan and heat until hot. Add in sausage and brown, breaking up with the back of your spoon.
Step 3
Toss in shallots and garlic and cook until softened and translucent.
Step 4
Add chiles and tomato paste and cook until tomato paste begins to darken in color, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Deglaze with wine and let reduce slightly. Turn heat to low.
Step 6
Season boiling water heavily with salt. Drop in pasta and cook until just under al dente.
Step 7
While pasta cooks, finish the sauce. Add in goat cheese, along with a few splashes of pasta water to help melt the cheese into the sauce.
Step 8
Stir in cream and season with salt and pepper. Turn heat to low as pasta finishes.
Step 9
Drain pasta and add to pan with sauce. Stir in cheese, along with splashes of pasta water to create a creamy, emulsified sauce. Fold in peas.
Step 10
Serve garnished with more grated cheese, a drizzle of EVOO and more black pepper, if desired.
