best-super-easy-penne...with-a-lot-of-garlic.
A big pot of garlicky red sauce, spicy sausage, and twirls of penne…this is that easy, cozy pasta everyone asks for. The secret? Gently caramelized garlic in good olive oil, then a long, lazy simmer so the flavors mingle. A tried and true family favorite. Slow simmered red sauce with a lot of garlic, Italian herbs, rich olive oil, and spicy chicken sausage. Simmer this sauce low and slow, then toss in fresh penne pasta and top with plenty of cheese. Just add crusty bread…and maybe some wine and you’ll be good to go! Make it on the stovetop, in the Instant Pot, or low and slow in the slow cooker. Toss with penne, shower with parmesan, and dinner’s done.
