Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces vegetarian Italian-style sausage, sliced
1 medium onion, cut into thin wedges
1 medium yellow bell pepper, cut into bite-sized strips
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup dry red wine
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, with juice
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 (8 ounce) package dried penne pasta
2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oil in an extra-large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook until browned, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet, reserving drippings in skillet.
  • Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet; cook, stirring, over medium heat until softened, 5 minutes. Carefully add wine to skillet. Cook, scraping up any browned bits, for 1 minute. Add crushed tomatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, Italian seasoning, sugar, salt, and red pepper. Return sausage to skillet. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Uncover and cook until desired consistency, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
  • Serve pasta topped with sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
