The recipe is super simple and basic. It reminds me of traditional spaghetti with meat sauce. I classify it as a grownup version. It doesn’t have a lot of tomato sauce, yet it’s very flavorful from the Italian sausage and herbs.
If you’re serving children, you can replace the wine with chicken broth. However, alcohol does cook off.

Rotini is the perfect pasta for this sauce because it pairs wonderfully with the meatiness and laps up all the sauce. Any pasta will work but this has been a perpetual favorite.
I finished my pasta with chopped basil. And, of course, a glass of nice red wine.
If you have thirty minutes, you have time to make this hearty dish that’s perfect all year and leaves you feeling full and satisfied.
- You can use any shape pasta in this recipe. So use what you have on hand.
- As well, I used one pound of Italian sausage and one pound of ground turkey. You can use all sausage, all ground beef, or sub ground beef for the turkey.
- Finally, your noodles don’t have to be drunk. You can use chicken broth instead of wine.

Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 1 pound ground turkey beef or chicken can be used
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground
- 4 cloves garlic minced

- 1/4 cup basil fresh, chopped
- 16 ounce pasta any shape
Instructions
- In a large pan or braising pot, brown sausage and turkey (beef or chicken). Drain grease if necessary. Since I used ground turkey, I didn't have excess to drain.
- While meat is browning, cook pasta according to directions on the package. Drain.
- Clear an area in the center of the pan where the meat is and add the garlic. Stir and cook 1 minute. Add the salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning and stir together with the garlic and the meat.
- Add the white wine and cook down until reduced to about half.
- Add the tomatoes in their juice, pasta, and parsley. Reduce heat to low and cook 4 to 5 minutes.

Delicious! My family loved it!
Loved how simple this was to make! Great quick dinner recipe!
You a delicious pasta and I love the Italian sausage in there. Thanks for easy, yummy recipe. I like that i can use wine or chicken broth depending what i have on hand!
Nice little twist to an Italian pasta recipe.
I had some Italian turkey sausage that needed to be used, and as I looked for recipes, I stumbled upon this one. I had all of the ingredients on hand so I decided to try it. As there were only two of us, I did half the recipe and eliminate the ground turkey…2 lbs of meat for two people seemed like a lot! Overall, we enjoyed this recipe. I added frozen chopped spinach for some extra veggies and used gluten free pasta. I would definitely make this again! Thanks for sharing!
Would raviolis be ok to use
Yes, would be wonderful.
Thank you for such a lovely & delicious salad. At the age of 82, there are times I don’t feel like spending
a lot of time on my feet preparing three or four dishes for a meal.
This quick to prepare, it is delicious & nourishing & it makes a beautiful presentation on its own.
