Prep: 7 minutes; Cook: 22 minutes
Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked penne (tube-shaped pasta)
8 ounces hot turkey italian sausage
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup vertically sliced onion (about 1/2 medium)
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil, garlic, and oregano, undrained
1/4 cup dry red wine or fat-free, less-sodium beef broth
2 tablespoons tomato paste with italian herbs
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cooking spray
1 cup (4 ounces) finely shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat.
2. While pasta cooks, remove casings from sausage. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté 2 minutes or until tender. Add sausage; cook 7 minutes or until browned, stirring to crumble. Stir in tomatoes and next 7 ingredients. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Preheat broiler.
4. Drain pasta, and return to pan. Add sauce, and toss gently to coat. Spoon mixture into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with cheese. Broil 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Serve immediately.
5. Salsicce (sahl-SE-chay) is traditionally pork sausage, but we've substituted turkey Italian sausage in this recipe.
