You won’t miss the marinara sauce once you taste this pasta dish flavored with chicken broth and Italian sausage. “It’s incredibly easy, and the ingredients create their own sauce,” notes Daphine Smith of Baytown, Texas. “My husband likes it so much that I make it once a week.”

Just made this for dinner and it was a hit! Everyone in the family loved it and is already looking forward to having it again. I used a hot Italian sausage (we like things spicy!) and it was full of flavor yet still light and tasty. Highly recommended and super easy! Yum! :)

That`s very inetersting way of cooking pasta! I love this way. I did bigger amount with using almost the whole bag of pasta so I had hard time to stir the sauce into the pasta even I had not wait until it thickened because all my sauce was absorbed by pasta at once.

made this tonight for myself for dinner. I was exceedingly pleased. Flavor was great, just what I was looking for on a beautiful fall evening.
