Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add red pepper and onion and sauté until softened, about 8 minutes.
-
Stir in the garlic, fennel, red pepper flakes, and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Crumble sausage into the skillet and cook with the pepper and onion until browned.
-
Deglaze the skillet by adding the wine and scraping the cooked bits off the bottom.
-
Add the marinara sauce, pasta, and 3 cups of the water and mix well. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer 15 to 17 minutes or until pasta is cooked through, adding the remaining cup of water in small amounts every 5 minutes or so, and stirring to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the skillet.
-
Stir in cream, Parmesan cheese, and most of the basil (reserve some to use as a garnish when serving). Allow cream to heat through for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes before serving.
