Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Italian sausage (mild or spicy, casings removed)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 250 milliliters Heavy cream
- 120 milliliters Chicken or vegetable stock
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon (freshly ground, adjust to taste) Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Optional: Red pepper flakes
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the Italian sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it is browned and fully cooked through. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set it aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and chopped onion. Cook until the onion is translucent and softened, about 3-5 minutes.
Deglaze the pan by adding the chicken or vegetable stock, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet to incorporate more flavor.
Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Let the mixture come to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Allow the sauce to thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and stir it into the creamy sauce. Let the mixture simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat through and meld the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot over pasta, creamy polenta, or with a side of crusty bread for dipping.
