Instructions

Cook the penne pasta per instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water; drain and reserve 1/2 cup of cooking water.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, removed from the casings, and the red onion; cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring often, making sure to break up the sausage into crumbles as it cooks.
Add the broccoli florets, the grape tomatoes, and crushed red pepper, and continue cooking for 5 minutes, stirring often.
Add the garlic then cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute; season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
Add the cooked and drained pasta to the skillet with some reserved pasta liquid, as needed, to the large skillet.
Add a drizzle of olive oil onto the pasta and the butter; mix until well combined. Taste then season with sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper to taste, if needed. Gently mix until evenly coated.
Serve immediately with lots of freshly grated parmesan on the side. Enjoy.
