Follow The Directions

01

Step
25 mins

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned (approx. 10 minutes).

02

Step
20 mins

Stir in the chopped onion, drained mushrooms, chopped garlic, and dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the onions are softened and slightly browned (approx. 15 minutes).

03

Step

Pour in the white wine and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the wine has almost completely evaporated, concentrating the flavors (approx. 10 minutes).

04

Step

Add the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and butter to the skillet. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened to your liking (approx. 10-15 minutes). Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

05

Step

Serve the Italian sausage and sauce over freshly cooked spaghetti. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the oregano.
If you don't have white wine on hand, chicken broth can be used as a substitute, though it will alter the flavor profile slightly.
Fresh mushrooms can be used in place of canned. Saute them separately before adding them to the sausage mixture.

    The white wine reduction really makes a difference. Don't skip that step!

  • Major Wolf

    I didn't have any white wine on hand, so I used chicken broth instead. It was still good, but I'll try it with wine next time.

  • Taylor Steuberschuppe

    My kids are picky eaters, but they actually ate this! That's a win in my book!

  • Vanessa Davis

    Great recipe! Next time, I'll add some sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor.

  • Ashlynn Kunde

    This was delicious! My family loved it. I added a little extra garlic because we're garlic fanatics.

  • Terence Mcdermott

    The sauce was a little too thick for me, so I added a splash of pasta water to thin it out.

  • Dominique Medhurst

    I made this for a dinner party and everyone raved about it. Will definitely make again.
