Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 8 ounces dried pasta (like penne or rotini)
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 5 ounces fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Brown the Italian sausage in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Drain off excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juice) and the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Add the dried pasta, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the pasta is cooked through and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  7. Stir in the heavy cream until combined.
  8. Add the fresh spinach. Stir until the spinach wilts completely into the sauce.
  9. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a lower fat option, use chicken or turkey sausage instead of pork sausage.
  • If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash more broth or water while stirring in the cream.
  • Make sure you stir the pasta frequently while it simmers to stop it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
