  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 11-13 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander/strainer. Set aside. Reserve pot; no need to wipe clean.

    While pasta cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into 1/4" dice.

    Mince garlic.

    Remove Italian sausage from casing, if necessary.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausage

    Return pot used to cook pasta to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add Italian sausage and onions to hot pot. Break sausage into smaller pieces until no pink remains and sausage reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Add garlic and stir often until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

  4. 4

    Add the Sauce

    Add chicken base, diced tomatoes, cream cheese, marinara, pesto, 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water, garlic pepper, and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pot. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.

    If too thick, add additional reserved pasta cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

  5. 5

    Add Pasta and Finish Dish

    Add pasta to hot pot. Stir occasionally until pasta is coated and heated through, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
