Preparation Steps

1

Cook the Pasta

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2

Sauté the Sausage

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

3

Add Vegetables

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the sausage. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent. Then, add the sliced bell peppers and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are tender.

4

Combine with Marinara

Pour in the marinara sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

5

Mix in Pasta

Add the cooked penne pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is coated in the sauce and heated through.

6

Serve

Garnish with fresh basil if desired and serve hot.
