As Seen On
Chicken sausage makes the best pasta. This version of chicken sausage pasta features Italian chicken sausage, al dente Fettuccine noodles, sun-dried tomatoes, and a creamy, lemony white wine sauce. The pasta is finished with fresh baby mozzarella pearls, so you only need vegan garlic bread or butter bread to complete the meal. Overall, Chicken Sausage Pasta is a comforting and truly delicious meal.

- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 pound Italian Chicken Sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 Shallots, minced
- 1/2 cup White Wine
- 1 cup Broccoli Florets
- Juice of 1 Lemon
- 1 cup Chicken Broth
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream

Instructions
Place 1 tablespoon of olive oil into a deep skillet. Set it over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken sausage and cook for 8-10 minutes, occasionally stirring, until it is browned. Remove the chicken sausage from the skillet and place it onto a plate.
Add the remaining olive oil, garlic, and shallots and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the white wine and run the bottom of a wooden spoon against the bottom of the pan to release the bits. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until most of the wine evaporates.
Add the broccoli, lemon juice, and chicken broth and cook for 5 minutes until the broccoli is tender.
Add the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper, and stir until combined.
Add the baby kale and cook for 2-3 minutes until it wilts.
Add the chicken sausage, Fettuccine pasta, and sun-dried tomatoes and toss to coat them in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through.
Place the chicken sausage pasta into a serving dish and garnish with the mozzarella pearls.
