One Pan Creamy Tortellini and Smoked Sausage is a delicious one pan meal combining cheese filled pasta, savory sausage, and a creamy tomato sauce.
Equipment
- large deep skillet
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound smoked sausage cut into ¼-inch rounds
- ½ cup diced white onion
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 20 ounce refrigerated cheese tortellini
- 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes or whole tomatoes cut in the can
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
- salt
- pepper
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup freshly shredded jack cheese
- fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened; 3-4 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add sausage and cook until browned on both sides.
- Stir in chicken broth, tortellini, tomatoes, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Turn heat to low, cover and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until pasta is tender, stirring at least once to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and stir in cheeses, reserving a handful for sprinkling on top. Cover and let stand for five to ten minutes, or broil for 2-3 minutes to brown. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
