Instructions
- Boil a salted pot of water and cook your pasta al dente according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, fry the sausage in a skillet until browned over medium-high heat, breaking it up as you go along (about 7-8 minutes). When it's done, transfer it to a paper towel lined plate. If there's a lot of excess fat in the pan, drain it.
- Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt, then add in the mushrooms. Cook them, stirring occasionally, for about 5-6 minutes or until they release water and it's been cooked off.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Take the mushrooms out of the pan (add them to the same plate that has the sausage).
- Add the wine, oregano, lemon juice, and flour to the skillet. Give it a good stir (only let it cook for about 1 minute).
- Stir in the cream, and then add the mushrooms and sausage back to the skillet. Let it warm through/cook for a few more minutes until it's slightly thickened, then drain the pasta and add it to the skillet and toss. If the sauce thickens up too much, add in a splash of the hot pasta water prior to draining it. Season with salt & pepper if needed (taste first as the sausage can be quite salty!) and serve with parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
Notes
- For the sausages, anything around the 16 ounce/1 pound ballpark will work. There is a lot of sausage in here, so you could use a bit less if needed. You can either buy bulk ground sausage meat or, if using whole sausages, take the meat out of the casings.
