Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Sausage Bites
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the sausage slices, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Creamy Parmesan Sauce
In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Stir in heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, then stir in Parmesan until smooth and creamy.
Combine & Serve
Toss the cooked pasta in the Parmesan sauce, then add the sausage bites on top. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately for a rich, comforting meal.
Tips for the Best Garlic Butter Sausage Bites
Use Quality Sausage: The better the sausage, the more flavorful the dish.
Don’t Overcook the Garlic: Garlic burns quickly and can taste bitter—just sauté until fragrant.
Customize Your Pasta: Add mushrooms, spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor and color.
