Pin This RecipeI saw this recipe over at one of my favorite blogs, KevinandAmanda.com, and couldn’t wait to give it a try! OMG! It was SO delicious!
I am really into these no-boil, one-pot skillet dishes. I have made several and we have loved all of them. They are easy to clean up and take less than 30 minutes to make. Who doesn’t love that?!
We both absolutely LOVED this dish. There was a nice smokiness from the sausage. We actually used smoked turkey sausage, but regular smoked sausage would be great too! The sauce had a great flavor as well. The parmesan cheese was perfect in the sauce. I wanted to eat the entire skillet by myself. Don’t worry, I didn’t. I reluctantly shared with Chicken Legs. There was enough leftover for lunch, and it was equally delicious reheated. This Cheesy Smoked Sausage Skillet will definitely be going into the regular dinner rotation!
This pasta is a new favorite at our house. We usually serve it with a salad and some garlic bread. Here are a few of our favorite recipes from the blog that go great with this one-pan meal:

Great dish. I made it after a long day at work. What's the best way to re-heat it?
You can reheat it in the microwave or on the stove-top with a little extra chicken broth in the pan.
When do I add the pasta? Do I cook it like normal. Noddles.
Add the pasta after you cook the sausage – with the other ingredients. It cooks in the pan with everything else. Do not precook it.
Im from the Caribbean so excuse me if I sound strange but what do u eat with this recipe? And I thought those white things in the skillet is pasta.
It it pasta filled with cheese. Tortellini or ravioli
Is the smoked sausage already cooked, suchas Hillshire Farms or do I use uncooked sausage that I cook first?
Use smoked sausage, such as Hillshire Farms.
You know, I'm a single Dad and had only cooked a meal several times, but seven years ago, I began making breakfast, lunch and dinner and doing so everyday. I'm 59 but am raising my 10 year old daughter, Stephanie. I am disabled and have a hard time with balance, coordination, dexterity and more. This recipe sounds as though even I would have a hard time screwing it up, thanks and I'll be sure to check out your others as well.
I just made this recipe and it is delicious!
This is delicious! Just finished a second helping!
This looks delicious! how many servings does this make?
I have made this several times already, always with RAVE reviews from my hubby and 3 boys. I love a recipe that is both easy and family friendly. I have used a variety of filled pastas (whatever I have on hand), always turns out great! And 1 skillet, can it get any better? Thanks!
For tomato sauce, is this just a can of reg. sauce, or a can of pasta sauce? Just wanna clarify.
It is just regular tomato sauce. Enjoy!
This is almost done on the stove now and I can't stop snitching bites. It's amazing. Thanks for another easy weeknight meal idea!
You sound like me! I like to call that "quality control testing"! LOL! So glad you are enjoyed the recipe.
My husband refuses to eat smoked sausage so I used mild italian and I used sour cream instead of heavy cream and it was delicious!
