Cooking Steps
- Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To the boiling water, add rigatoni. Cook for 12-13 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water.
- Strain rigatoni, then return to the pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then zucchini.
- Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer zucchini to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
- To the same pan, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then sausage and Italian Herb Spice Blend.
- Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop parsley.
- To the pan with sausage, add half the tomato sauce base (use all for 4 servings). Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until well combined.
- Add crushed tomatoes, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, reserved pasta water and cream. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- To the pot with rigatoni, add sausage sauce mixture, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, zucchini and half the Parmesan. Toss to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide rigatoni between bowls.
- Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
- Sprinkle parsley over top.
If you've opted to get sausage, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook turkey.**
