Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb 450g Italian sausage
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 lb 450g penne pasta (or your preferred shape)
- 3 cups 710ml chicken broth
- 1 can 14.5 oz / 411g diced tomatoes
- 1 tbsp tomato paste ((to help thicken the sauce))
- 2 cups 200g shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup 50g grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried Italian herbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups fresh spinach or 1 cup cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- Step 1: Prep your ingredients: Slice the sausage, chop the onions and garlic, and measure out your pasta and liquids.
- Step 2: Brown the sausage: Heat a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add a splash of oil and brown the sausage until golden.
- Step 3: Add aromatics: Toss in the chopped onions and garlic. Cook until softened and fragrant.
- Step 4: Pasta time: Add the pasta, 3 cups of chicken broth, the can of diced tomatoes, and 1 tbsp of tomato paste. Stir well.
- Step 5: Simmer: Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Let it simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed (about 12-15 minutes).
- Step 6: Cheese time: Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan until melted and evenly distributed.
- Step 7: Final touches: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If using spinach, stir it in now and let it wilt for a minute. Serve warm and enjoy!
