Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) package dry penne pasta
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 pound mild Italian sausage
1 cup chopped onion
½ cup white wine
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with garlic
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
  • Heat oil in a large, deep skillet. Place sausage and onion in the skillet and cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain excess fat. Pour in wine, and cook for 1 minute, stirring, to deglaze the pan. Stir in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Toss with cooked pasta, and place in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle top with mozzarella.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet: This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Cook the sausage thoroughly: This will help to prevent foodborne illness and ensure that the sausage is flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Al dente pasta is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta is mushy and unappetizing.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings this dish together. Use a sauce that you like and that complements the sausage and pasta.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to this dish. Some good options include bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and spinach.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become mushy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This Johnsonville Italian Sausage Penne is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor from the sausage, sauce, and vegetables. Plus, it is a great way to use up leftover pasta. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
