Preparation

• In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil, then sauce the onion, peppers, garlic, sausage and Cajun seasoning until the onions become translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. 

• Stir in the white wine and tomato paste, then cook until the sauce reduces by half, about 3 minutes. 

• Add the heavy cream, bring to a low boil then turn down the heat to low, and let the sauce reduce, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the pasta according to package directions. 

• Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed, then remove from heat. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Serve topped with Parmesan cheese.
