Ingredients
- 8 ounces cavatappi noodles
- 1 pound Italian sausage mild, ground
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
- ¼ cup basil leaves about 10 leaves, chopped, fresh chopped
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Parmesan Cheese grated, for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, draining the rest. Set the cooked pasta and reserved pasta water aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook Italian sausage until browned (8-10 minutes). Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the tomato paste, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil (reserving some for garnish), salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and ¼ cup of reserved pasta water to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
- Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to release some of their natural juices.
- Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss well to coat the pasta evenly. (Add more pasta water if needed to reach your desired consistency.)
- Serve garnished with parmesan cheese and reserved basil.
