Sweet chicken and apple sausage paired with tender pasta and creamy cheese sauce, all cooked in one pan for a quick and easy meal with just one pan to wash!

Chicken Apple Sausage Pasta

A couple of years ago I did a little riff on a little one pan pasta dish, and it has since become one of the most popular posts on this site – my One Pan Cheesy Sausage Pasta. I decided it was high time to reinvent that recipe when I picked up some Chicken Apple Sausage the last time I shopped.

My kids have always loved sausage of any kind. Not sure what it is about the stuff, but I kind of love it too. Call it a guilty pleasure. Although, this is chicken apple sausage, so it’s not quite as guilty.

Like all of my one pot meals, this one is incredibly easy to whip up when you’re in a hurry, since it takes just about 30 minutes from start to finish.

sausage cooking

 

Start by browning the sausage and the onions, then add a bit of garlic. Stir in some apple juice with a little white wine vinegar to help de-glaze the pan.

Finally the pasta is added, along with diced tomatoes, chicken broth, heavy cream, dried sage and of course a little salt and pepper. It all comes to a boil then slow cooks the past at a nice simmer.

Once the pasta is cooked to al dente, the glorious cheddar (or Jack, or a mix of both) is sprinkled on top. I love fresh herbs so I usually sprinkle some on top no matter what I’m making, and I always have parsley on hand. It works perfectly here.

    is that the amount of calories per serving, or total?

      It’s per serving. However you could probably get 6 servings out of this recipe if you add a veggie on the side.
