Ingredients

  • 4 Roma tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1 (13 oz.) box whole wheat penne pasta
  • 3 pre-cooked chicken sausages, cut into half-circles

  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground pepper
  • 8 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup minced flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  • The Tomatoes:
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  • Place the tomatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the tomatoes with the olive oil, and sprinkle them with garlic, oregano, salt and pepper.

  • The Pasta:
  • While the tomatoes are roasting, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Cook the sausages until browned, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the roasted tomatoes and cooked pasta to the sausage, along with the olive oil, salt, pepper, basil and parsley.
  • Serve with the Parmesan cheese.
