Ingredients
SAUCE:
- 1/2 cup butter 1 cube
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic minced
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Topping:
- 1/2 pound hot Italian sausage
- 1 onion
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms sliced
- 2 teaspoons garlic
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices cut into halves
- 1/4 pound pastrami sliced
- 4 oz Sliced Jalapenos drained
- 4.25 oz sliced black olives drained
- pinch red pepper flakes
- 16 ounces spaghetti or linguine noodles boil according package directions
Instructions
- Melt a little of the butter in a medium saucepan and add half of the garlic. Saute on medium heat for about a minute, then add remaining butter, whipping cream, and pepper. Bring to a slight simmer and add the parmesan cheese.
- Lower heat and stir until cheese is completely melted in and sauce thickens. In a large pan heated on medium-high heat, piece sausage in small chunks and cook thoroughly. Add onions, peppers, mushrooms and remaining garlic. When onions become clear, add remaining ingredients and saute for about 8 minutes or until everything is hot and cooked through.
- Remove sauce from heat and toss with cooked pasta noodles. Top pasta with skillet mixture, parmesan cheese, and hot red pepper flakes (to taste).
