Ingredients

• 3 spicy Italian sausage, meat removed from the casing
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup red wine substitute with beef or chicken stock or water if needed
• 28 oz can whole or diced tomatoes
• 1/3 cup fresh chopped parsley
• 1/2 cup fresh chopped basil
• 2 tsp kosher salt
• fresh ground pepper
• 4 cups water
• 12 oz linguine
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• parsley & basil to garnish

Instructions

1. In a 3.5 quart (or larger) braiser or high-sided pan, add a drizzle of olive oil & turn to med-high heat. Add sausage meat & cook until golden & cooked through about 10-12 minutes, using a spoon to break into smaller pieces.

2. Add minced garlic, stir and cook for 2 minutes.

3. Stir in red wine and cook until mostly evaporated.

4. Add in tomatoes with their juices, parsley, basil, salt, pepper, stir together & use a spoon to break the tomatoes into smaller pieces if using whole tomatoes.

5. Add water & stir everything to combine. Bring to a boil over high heat, turn to medium-high to keep at a strong simmer.

6. Add in dried pasta & fold gently into the sauce as the noodles slightly soften. The pot will be quite full; that’s ok.

7. Cover & cook for 5 minutes, then remove the lid & cook for 10-15 more minutes. Stir & turn the noodles so they don’t stick to the bottom of the pan, cooking until most of the liquid is absorbed with a bit of sauce left.

8. Stir in shredded parmesan cheese & let sit for a few minutes. Garnish with parsley & basil.

This recipe is wonderful during the week or make it a part of a full menu on the weekend.

What to serve with this one pot pasta meal

• Fresh bread: A fresh loaf of ciabatta or baguette with some butter
• A simple green salad: This kale & brussels sprouts salad would be delicious or try my simple green salad by mixing in some other seasonal vegetables.
• Red Wine: A medium-bodied wine like a Zinfandel or Cabernet Sauvignon goes well with tomato-based dishes like this one pot pasta.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do here at home.
