Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lb italian sausage, casings removed
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 cup sweet yellow onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 lb angel hair pasta
- 1/2 cup basil, fresh - chopped
- grated parmesan, to taste
Instructions
- To a medium skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add sausage. Saute until sausage is no longer pink, breaking up with spatula, about 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic; saute until onion is translucent about 3-4 more minutes. Add crushed tomatoes and cream to skillet. Reduce heat to low and simmer until sauce mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- While sausage is browning, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite (al dente). Drain when done, saving 1 cup cooking liquid. Return pasta to the same pot.
- Add sausage/sauce mixture and toss over medium-low heat until sauce coats pasta, adding reserved cooking liquid by ¼ ladlefuls, if mixture is dry. Add in chopped basil, and Parmesan cheese, before serving.
