Cooking instructions

- While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Slice chicken sausages into rounds and add to skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes until lightly browned.
- Dice bell peppers and mince garlic. Add to skillet with sausages, cooking for 5-7 minutes until peppers are tender-crisp.
- Stir in diced tomatoes (undrained) and oregano. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add drained pasta to the skillet, along with reserved pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency. Toss to coat. Stir in chopped fresh parsley and serve.
