One Pot Tortellini & Sausage

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons oil
• 1 cup sweet onion (about 1/2 onion))
• 1/2 pound sweet Italian sausage (casings removed)
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 1/2 cups pasta sauce
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (plus extra for garnish)
• 24 ounces cheese filled tortellini

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent (about 5 minutes).

2. 2

   Push the onions to the sides, turn heat to medium-high, and brown and crumble the sausage. (Let the sausage sear undisturbed for the first 3 minutes, flip with a spatula, cook another 2 minutes and then start to crumble with a wooden spoon or meat chopper.) Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Drain off fat.

3. 3

   Stir in the pasta sauce, cream, broth, and salt until combined. Stir in the tortellini, bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 4 minutes. Remove lid, stir in cheese, and cook until sauce is thickened (about 1-2 minutes).
