Cooking Steps
- Add penne to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Reserve 1 cup (2 cups) pasta water, then drain and return penne to the same pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
- Add broccoli, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
- Broil in the middle of the oven, flipping once halfway through, until broccoli is tender-crisp, 5-8 min.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan to melt.
- Add sausage. Cook, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
- Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over sausage, then stir to coat sausage, 1 min.
- Add cream cheese, garlic and reserved pasta water. Cook, stirring constantly, until cream cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min. Season with pepper.
- Pour cream, sauce and half the cheddar over the penne in the pot. Stir to combine.
- Add broccoli, then stir gently until combined, 1 min.
- Divide pasta between bowls.
- Top with remaining cheddar.
If you've opted for double sausage, cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the regular portion of sausage. Work in batches, if necessary.
