Used 2 cloves of garlic with 2 Italian sausages, could have added 6 cloves - we like garlic! One hot, one sweet sausage, plenty of protein and lots of veggies, added a jar of marinara sauce before final 5-10 minutes of cooking. Did not use arrowroot. Delicious!!
This was an easy weeknight meal - nothing mind-blowing, but a good basic to add to the repertoire. I subbed corn starch for the arrowroot 1:1 and it didn't thicken much at all, so I may try more corn starch next time.
I used 4 sweet Italian sausages and 4 hot Italian sausages, sliced the sausages on a cutting board after the final 10 minute simmer, and served over al dente rigatoni. Delicious!
