Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed

  • 3 large garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 pound mild Italian sausage

  • 5 fluid ounces white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio

  • 5 ounces heavy whipping cream

  • 8 ounces penne or rigatoni pasta

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

  • fresh parsley, to taste

Directions

  • Bring a large pot salted water to a boil and cook pasta until tender with a bite, 9 to 11 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain pasta.


  • Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and then sausage. Cook sausage, breaking it up with a spatula until it starts to brown, about 7 minutes.


  • Add garlic and a little more olive oil if skillet seems dry. Pour in wine, and use a spoon to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet.


  • Simmer until wine has reduced by about half; add pasta water and half the Parmesan. Stir, then add cream. Stir again, season with salt and pepper. Let it cook for a minute, then stir in pasta. Check for seasoning, then add in remaining Parmesan. Stir well and serve sprinkled with parsley.
