Instructions
Cook pasta according to package instructions.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add garlic and onions, and sauté for about 2 minutes, just until the onions are translucent.
Add ground sausage to skillet and stir until fully cooked, about 5 minutes.
Add beef broth or wine and scrap browned sausage bits off the bottom of the skillet.
Add diced tomatoes (undrained, with the juices), tomato paste, and dried oregano, and stir all ingredients well. Turn heat down to low-medium and simmer for at least 10 minutes.
Add cooked pasta and ¼ cup reserved pasta water to the skillet and stir all ingredients until the pasta is coated with the sauce. If needed, add more reserve water to create a sauce consistency to your liking.
Remove from heat. Sprinkle parsley, basil, and/or cheese just before serving. Add salt and pepper to taste.
