Instructions

Prep
1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Core, deseed, and thinly slice bell pepper. Mince parsley. Remove sausage from casings; discard casings.

Cook Veggies
2

Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and half the Tuscan Heat Spice. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. (For 4 servings, transfer veggies to a large bowl at this point. We want to ensure your sausage browns evenly!)

Cook Sausage
3

Add sausage and another drizzle of oil to pan. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until sausage is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Cook Pasta
4

Once water boils, add spaghetti to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Carefully scoop out and reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water (2 cups for 4 servings), then drain. Leave pot on stove.

Simmer Sauce
5

Meanwhile, stir tomatoes into pan with sausage. Season with salt, pepper, and remaining Tuscan Heat Spice. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer while pasta cooks. After you’ve drained pasta, stir ¾ cup reserved cooking water (1 ¼ cups for 4 servings) and stock concentrate into pan. Continue simmering until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes (3-4 minutes for 4 servings). Turn off heat.

Finish and Serve
6

Transfer sauce to pot used to cook pasta. Add spaghetti (and veggies for 4 servings) to pot, tossing to coat. (TIP: Add more pasta cooking water if needed to give sauce a loose consistency.) Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), half the parsley, and half the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Divide between bowls, then sprinkle with remaining parsley and Parmesan.
