Directions

  1. In a large deep pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add Italian sausage, onion, bell pepper and cook, breaking up sausage, until onions are translucent and sausage is cooked through. Add garlic and cook for one minute or until fragrant.
  2. Add crushed tomatoes, Holland House® Red Cooking Wine, chicken broth, and oregano. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil.
  3. Reduce heat to a high simmer (medium/medium-low) and add pasta. Stir to combine and push pasta down into sauce. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently, or until pasta is al dente.
