Simple Sausage & Pasta Skillet
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Aidells®. The opinions and text are all mine.
Family dinner at our house is precious time. We have kids of all ages (29 to 4 years old), and we never quite know how many will be showing up at the dinner table. Take yesterday, for example, 4 out of 6 were dining with us. This also means I need to prepare meals which make the majority of my family happy.
I have a sure-fire dish to share today that I can happily say that my entire family enjoys, every single time. Simple Sausage & Pasta Skillet is so good! What mom enjoys mostly is the complete ease of this meal. Yes, I agree with the fact that it tastes amazing, but easy wins my heart every time.
The easy part happens for a couple of reasons. This is a one-pan meal, I love those. No extra dishes that require washing, no extra steps, nice and simple. Another reason I put this in the ‘easy meal’ category is that I use fully cooked Aidells® Smoked Chicken Sausage. For this particular recipe I used the amazing Pineapple & Bacon variety and let me tell you…we love love love this variety.

I’m telling you the pan will be squeaky clean after dinner. This is a meal that is requested again and again. Which makes me happy knowing I’m feeding my family a delicious meal that they enjoy, made with healthy ingredients.
When I say this is recipe is simple, it really truly is: In large cover covered skillet saute onion in olive oil. Add sliced Aidells® sausage and cook over medium-high heat until nicely browned. Stir in roasted bell pepper, chicken broth, heavy whipping cream and bring to a boil. Add in tortellini and Italian seasoning, stir to combine. Turn heat to low and simmer with the lid on for approximately 5 minutes. If you desire less sauce simmer until sauce is reduced more. Serve immediately topped with shredded parmesan cheese if desired.
