Notes

Gluten free pasta: Jovial and Banza are two of my favorite gluten free pasta brands.

Oil: I've made this recipe with both avocado oil and olive oil. Either works well.

Herbs: I use dried parsley and basil in the sauce. If I have fresh herbs on hand, I'll add them on top before serving.

Add chicken or shrimp: Cook the protein separately and add it during the final minute of cooking the sauce. Add the pasta and toss everything together.

Add chicken sausage: Cook the sauce for 2 minutes, then add the chicken sausage. Continue cooking for another 10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes, until the sausage is cooked through. Add the pasta and toss to combine.

Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
