What a fantastic dish! I just made this for dinner and my husband and I both devoured it. Followed the recipe as is- just wonderful. My husband said “it’s definitely a keeper”
I am SO glad you both loved it!
This is a brilliant idea. Let make so sausages. I am going to get the ingredient right now. It is the right time as I was wondering what to make for tonight. Thanks for the recipe
I love pasta and I love a one pot dinner. I must try this recipe. It looks delicious.
I hope you love it!
I’m a little late on the bandwagon here but omg, this was amazing! I couldn’t find any spicy chicken sausage so I made it with chicken & apple sausage and added some cayenne pepper to the chicken while sautéing. It’s so tasty! I made enough for us all to take for lunches tomorrow as well 😊 Thanks for this recipe!
This dish is simple and amazing! I’ve made it as it several times and my kids love and our company loved it as well.
