Super Simple Sausage Pasta

Print Recipe
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 lb rigatoni pasta
  • 1 package andouille sausage sliced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Method
 

  1. Cook the pasta in boiling water according to the package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water before draining.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage on both sides. Add the frozen peas and cook until the peas are heated through (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with the parmesan and about 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water. Stir until everything is combined. Serve hot.
  4. Tip: I always reserve 1 cup of the pasta water just in case I want to make it a little more saucy. Add about 1/2 cup to begin with and then adjust to your desired consistency.
