Ingredients

• 1 lb Italian pork sausage, casings removed
• 2 cups penne pasta
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced

• 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

1. 1Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat and crumble in the sausage, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
2. 2Cook for 6 to 7 minutes until the sausage is browned, then add the onion and garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
3. 3Stir in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, basil, and oregano, then add the uncooked pasta directly into the skillet.
4. 4Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
