Sausage Pasta Recipe
The 4-ingredient sausage pasta is a delightful one-pan meal you'll crave repeatedly! Ideal for busy nights, it's a hearty, comforting dish that is cooked in one single pan.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 4 ounce favorite short pasta, I used smaller penne
- 2 sausages casings removed, or mild italian ground sausage, about 14 ounce
- ½ cup yellow onion, diced
- 6 cherry tomatoes, halved
- Parmesan cheese for serving
- salt and black pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Boil salted water for the pasta. Once boiling, add pasta and cook for 7-8 minutes until almost al dente.
- Cook onion in a large skillet over medium heat until lightly softened. Add sausage and cook for 4-5 minutes until almost cooked. Add tomatoes and cook for 5-8 minutes until tomatoes wrinkle then reduce heat.
- Carefully transfer pasta to skillet with 2-4 tablespoons of pasta water added gradually. Toss everything together off heat.
- Optionally, stir in parmesan or season with salt and pepper, garnishing with parmesan and fresh parsley.
NOTES
- To Store. In the fridge, this recipe stays fresh for up to 3 days. While I'm not fond of freezing pasta due to potential texture changes upon thawing, it's still an option for leftovers, albeit not as ideal as fresh or reheated from the fridge.
- This recipe is for 1 good sized serving or 2 smaller.
