Cheesy Sausage Pasta

Submitted by: admin on April 10, 2020

8 servings

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package uncooked pasta shells
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ tablespoon finely minced onion
1 orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Step 1
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water, and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the shell pasta, and return to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 13 minutes. Drain well.

Step 2
While the pasta is cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onion, orange pepper, and garlic in oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir the crumbled Italian sausage into the vegetables in the skillet; cook and stir until meat is browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Stir in the undrained tomatoes and the heavy cream. Turn the heat to medium-low, and allow the sauce to cook until thick, about 5 additional minutes.

Step 3
Mix pasta with the sausage cream sauce, stir in the Parmesan cheese, and serve. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
