Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 1 (16 ounce) package bow-tie pasta
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound bulk sweet Italian sausage
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1.25 cups dry white wine
  • 1.5 tablespoons rubbed sage
  • 1.5 cups chicken stock
  • 1.5 cups canned pumpkin
  • 0.75 cup half-and-half
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a deep, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain and discard grease.
  • Heat teaspoon oil in the skillet. Add onion and garlic; saute until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain pasta and return to the pot.
  • Add wine and sage to the skillet. Simmer until wine is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and pumpkin; stir until sauce starts to bubble. Return sausage to the skillet. Reduce heat and stir in half-and-half. Season sauce with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Simmer until sauce thickens, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Pour pumpkin cream sauce over the pasta. Toss over low heat for 1 minute. Taste and adjust seasoning.
