Italian Chicken Sausage Spaghetti
Ingredients
- 1 lb Italian chicken sausage (plain Italian sausage would work just fine too)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, sliced thin
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 15 oz can tomato sauce
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt (more to taste if needed)
- 1/2 tsp allspice
- 1 lb cooked spaghetti
Instructions
- Place sausage in a large skillet with 1/2 c. water. Bring water to a boil, cover skillet and cook for 15 minutes. Remove cover and let water simmer away while browning the sausages. Remove from skillet and slice. Set aside.
- Add 2 T. olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for 5 minutes, until onions are translucent. Add the sausage back to the skillet.
- Add the tomato sauce and remaining seasonings. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer as long as possible. (I had it simmering all day to really develop the flavors.) Serve over spaghetti or stir the spaghetti into the sauce just before serving.
