Creating One-Pan Creamy Penne with Spinach and Italian Sausage is simple. Just follow these straightforward steps:

1. Sauté the Sausage: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and thoroughly cooked, approximately 5-7 minutes.

2. Add Onions and Garlic: Once the sausage is cooked, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

3. Incorporate the Broth and Pasta: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, bringing it to a gentle boil. Add the penne pasta, making sure it’s well submerged in the liquid.

4. Simmer the Pasta: Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let the pasta simmer. Stir occasionally until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 10-12 minutes.

5. Add Cream and Spinach: Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the heavy cream, and add the spinach and Italian seasoning. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and everything is heated through.

6. Stir in Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat and add the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until melted and you achieve a creamy consistency.

7. Season: Taste the dish and season with salt and pepper as desired.

8. Serve: Transfer to serving dishes and enjoy this comforting meal!
