Arrabbiata means ANGRY in Italian. I love this sauce because it has a spicy kick to it. This dish is very simple and quick to make.  I usually eat this with shrimp but I didn’t have shrimp on hand. I did have Italian sausages, so I decided to throw that in this dish.

Here are the ingredients:

• Penne Pasta
• 3-4 Italian sausage links- sausage taken out of its casing
• 5 cloves of garlic minced
• 1/2 of a large sized onion chopped
• Handful of basil leaves chiffonade
• 1 Tblspn. Red Chili Flakes
• Salt and Pepper to taste
• 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes
• Olive Oil
• Parmesan cheese

1. Heat up oil and saute garlic and onion.  Season with salt and pepper.
2. Once onion is softened, add red chili flakes and basil.
3. Add sauce and simmer for 20 minutes on low heat.
4. Cook Italian sausage in another pan.
5. Cook pasta according to package instructions.
6. Combine all ingredients and garnish with parmesan cheese.

Enjoy!
