Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 tbsp kosher salt, then cook the gluten free pasta according to package directions until al dente — tender with a slight resistance at the center. Before draining, scoop out ½ cup of the starchy pasta water and set it aside. Drain the pasta in a colander.

While the pasta cooks, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the turkey sausage and cook, breaking it into rough ½-inch crumbles with a spoon, until browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), about 7–9 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside.
