PENNE, PEPPERS, AND CHICKEN-APPLE SAUSAGE SAUTE
This recipe originated with my son, who makes it with very spicy chicken sausages. I loved it so much that I adapted it to suit our taste. Because my husband prefers less spicy food, I use milder chicken-apple sausage. This is one of our favorite dinners.

- Don't be afraid to adjust the recipe to your liking. If you like things spicy, add more red pepper flakes. If you want it creamier, add more Parmesan cheese.
- Cook the pasta al dente. This means that it should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken and sausage. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Let the dish simmer for a few minutes at the end of cooking. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
