Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.

Heat oil in a large, deep skillet.

Place sausage and onion in the skillet and cook over medium high heat until evenly brown.

Drain excess fat.

Pour in wine, and cook for 1 minute, stirring, to deglaze the pan.

Stir in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes and tomato paste.

Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Toss with cooked pasta, and place in a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Sprinkle top with mozzarella.

Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
