Italian sausage tortellini

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • ½ cup heavy cream

Preparation

Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. When the oil is very hot, add the onions. Add turkey sausage to the pan and cook until sausage is browned. Reduce heat to low, add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add broth, tomatoes, cream, and tortellini to the skillet. Stir to combine. Increase heat and bring to a boil.
