Directions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook linguine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

Stir in the tomato sauce, remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, salt, and pepper. Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.

Toss the cooked linguine with the sausage sauce until evenly coated.
