Begin by boiling water in a large pot. Add your pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, but don’t forget to reserve a little pasta water; it can help with the sauce later.

In a large skillet over medium heat, drizzle in the olive oil.

Add the sliced sausage and cook it until it’s beautifully browned, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Toss in the chopped onion, sliced bell peppers, and minced garlic.

Allow everything to sauté together until the veggies soften, about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, and give it a generous dash of salt and freshly cracked pepper. Stir to combine.

Add your prepared pasta to the sausage and veggie mixture, using kitchen tongs to toss everything together.

For extra flavor, you can add a splash of reserved pasta water if needed.

Dish it out hot, with a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese and a few fresh basil leaves to finish.
