Creamy Sausage Pasta

1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook your pasta until al dente. Save some of the pasta water before draining.

2: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil. Add pancetta and cook until crispy, then remove and set aside.

3: Add the diced shallot to the pan and sauté until translucent.

4: Add the ground pork and break it up as it cooks.

5: Season with garlic powder, oregano, thyme, basil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the pork evenly.

6: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir everything together and let it simmer.

7: Add the Parmesan and stir until melted and the sauce is creamy.

8: Toss in the spinach and let it wilt down.

9: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and mix everything together. Add a splash of cream or reserved pasta water if you want it creamier.

10: Finish with salt and pepper to taste, more Parmesan, and crispy Panko.
