Beautiful color in that dish.  I love spicy meat sauces.  I know you said it's optional but I would totally add balsamic to it.  I bet that adds a lot of great flavor.  Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Spicy Sausage Rigatoni! My whole family LOVES this recipe! Real food ingredients like whole wheat rigatoni, San Marzano tomatoes, and red wine.

Amazing rigatoni pasta tossed in a simple homemade tomato cream sauce with spicy sausage, parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.

lb. Rigatoni

lb. Ground Italian Sausage

Red Onion (chopped)

Garlic Cloves (minced)

Tomato Paste

Heavy Cream

Parmesan Cheese (grated)

Red Pepper Flakes

Salt

tbsp Butter

tbsp Olive Oil

tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)

Brown ground sausage in a large skillet until completely cooked through. Scoop sausage out of the skillet and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to remove excess grease. Carefully wipe down skillet with paper towels to remove any grease.

Boil rigatoni according to package instructions for al dente. When done, drain and set aside.

While your rigatoni is cooking, prepare the sauce but adding butter and oil to a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and cook until soft, add garlic and cook another minute.

Stir in tomato paste, salt, and parsley. Slowly begin to whisk in heavy cream until fully combined. Stir in parmesan cheese and 1-2 teaspoons of red pepper flakes depending on how spicy you want your pasta.

Add sausage and rigatoni to the sauce and stir to combine. Sprinkle top with more fresh parsley and parmesan cheese (optional). Enjoy!

This came out AMAZING! Super creamy and perfect with the sausage!

This was SO yummy! I had to improvise a bit, since I had less heavy cream than I thought. I doubled the recipe, so I did 1 1/4C of heavy cream and 3/4C chicken stock to make up for it. I also added a shake or two of basil and Italian seasoning and less red pepper flakes. So creamy and delicious!

So yummy and very quick to make, perfect amount of spice!!
