Instructions
One Pot Italian Sausage Pasta (made in one pot)
- Remove sausage from the casings if using links. In a large saucepan or deep skillet over medium-high heat add the olive oil, add sausage and shallot.
- Cook and crumble the meat, using a flat wooden spoon or meat chopper, until it’s fully cooked. About 7-10 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, oregano, and garlic powder, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Cook the pasta al dente according to the instructions, or if desired, cook the pasta along with the sauce in the pot, by adding 3 cups of water or chicken broth. Cook according to pasta time on package. Pushing pasta down into the liquid. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer between 13-15 minutes, until al dente. Stirring every 5 minutes or so to keep from sticking, adding a little more water/broth if pasta is not submerged.
- Add the half and half and grated parmesan and cook for 5 minutes.
- If you didn’t cook your pasta in the same pot, then add the cooked pasta, mix to coat the pasta with the sauce and you are ready to serve. Garnish with fresh basil and more grated parmesan if desired.

Notes
- Gluten-Free One Pot Creamy Sausage Pasta
- Substitute gluten-free pasta for regular pasta, my favorite brand is Tinkyada (no mushy gluten-free pasta for me) or Trader Joe's GF pasta's. Make sure your sausage and seasonings are gluten-free.
- Storage Tips
- Freeze after cooling in an airtight container up to 3 months. While the cream may get a curdled appearance after freezing, it doesn't impact the flavor and taste. When reheating, follow make-ahead instructions.
- Transfer cooled pasta to an airtight container and store it in the fridge for 3-5 days. Then, reheat it in the microwave on the stove when you're ready to serve it again! Add a splash of cream, water or chicken broth.
