Steps:
- 1. Cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions; drain and rinse well.
- 2. Heat olive oil over medium high heat in a large skillet; add butter. Add the onion and saute just until it begins to caramelize. Remove sausage from the casings and add to onion mixture, breaking the sausage up with a spoon as it cooks. Continue cooking until sausage is lightly browned and cooked through. Add the garlic and continue cooking for another couple of minutes. Drain off fat.
- 3. To the sausage mixture, add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Cook down about 2 minutes until broth has significantly reduced. Add the undrained tomatoes, bring to a boil and reduce heat to a medium simmer. Continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cream, bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium simmer and cook for about 5 more minutes. Add the parsley, salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning, stir well and taste to adjust the seasoning as needed.
- 4. Add the drained and rinsed pasta to the sauce, stir and turn the heat down to low. Add in a large handful of Parmesan cheese and stir to incorporate. Just before servings, sprinkle a bit of additional Parmesan cheese on top of each plate of pasta.
- 5. Variation: For extra kick, substitute a can of Rotel tomatoes for the diced. To substitute fresh garden tomatoes, you'll probably need about 2 pounds, or about 2 cups of chopped, undrained tomatoes. Lighten this up by eliminating the butter and substituting milk or Greek yogurt for the heavy cream.
