This delicious One Pot Spaghetti is so easy to make, full of delicious flavor, and is perfect for a weeknight meal. This is a 30 minute meal everyone will love!
My kids love pasta dishes for dinner, and Nathan and I love dinners that are quick. When you throw in only one pot that has to be washed after dinner is over, then you have a total winner.
This one pot sausage and spaghetti is the perfect weeknight meal. It is made with easy-to-find ingredients and spices that you probably already have on hand, and it is absolutely delicious. Your family will swoon over this one the same way mine does!
How to Make Sausage Spaghetti
Here is a brief overview of how this easy spaghetti with sausage recipe comes together, right in one pot! For the full recipe including all measurements, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
- Cook the sausage. Add the Italian pork sausage to a hot skillet, breaking it up. Then add in the onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the onion is translucent and the sausage is browned, about five to seven minutes.
- Make the sauce. Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, basil, and parsley, stirring to combine. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then stir in the dry spaghetti noodles.
- Cook the spaghetti. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the spaghetti just has a small bite to it. Stir occasionally to pull the spaghetti apart.
- Garnish and serve. Top with shredded Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Enjoy!
Sausage Alternatives
If your family doesn’t eat pork or prefers the taste of turkey sausage, Italian turkey sausage is a great option for this recipe. It provides great flavor with less calories and fat than pork sausage. While you could use ground beef or ground turkey, it won’t have the flavor that Italian sausage brings to the dish.
This recipe has only been tested with spaghetti, and because we have tested it with this ratio of liquid, I would stick to spaghetti. Additionally, I would not recommend substituting in thin spaghetti or whole wheat spaghetti.
I have a great crock pot spaghetti recipe that I would follow to make this in your slow cooker.
Because the pasta is cooked, this recipe would not freeze and reheat well. Enjoy it fresh!
Storing and Reheating Leftovers
Store any leftover Italian sausage spaghetti in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat in the microwave or in a small skillet over low heat until heated through. Always use your best discretion with leftovers.
