Quick Italian Sausage Penne (20 Minutes)

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the pasta, and cook until slightly firm, 9 to 11 minutes, or as the package directs. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the pasta water; drain.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, slice the chicken sausages in half, then cut each half into small bite-sized pieces.

3. 3

   Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the sausage. Cook, stirring, until the sausage is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

4. 4

   Add butter and the garlic to the skillet; cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.

5. 5

   Add marinara sauce and cream to the skillet. Cook until combined and fully heated through; stir in the pasta. If the sauce is too thick, thin it with a little pasta water.

6. 6

   Remove from the heat and add as much Parmesan as you like. Serve in deep bowls with bread to scoop up the extra sauce.
