ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 1 (28 ounce) can tomatoes
- 1 pound rigatoni
Method
Step 1
Brown your sausage over medium heat. You want it to cook fairly slow here so the fat starts to render and you get it nice and golden brown on both sides. After your sausage is nicely browned, add in your tomatoes. If using whole canned tomatoes like I did, squeeze em to break them up a bit.
Step 2
Let your sausage and tomatoes simmer for 20 minutes. Check for salt. I typically don’t need to add any since the sausage is usually salty enough. But you make the call here.
Step 3
Then toss with your pasta, top with cheese and eat up.
