Fettuccine with Sausage, Sage, and Crispy Garlic

This fettuccine with sausage, sage, and crispy garlic is a sophisticated yet simple high-protein dish that brings together classic Italian flavours. The combination of aromatic fresh sage and thinly sliced golden garlic creates a fragrant oil that perfectly coats every strand of egg pasta. Using turkey sausages provides a lighter, leaner protein source without compromising on the traditional savoury depth of the dish.

Ideal for a comforting midweek meal, this recipe is as nourishing as it is flavourful. The addition of sharp, nutty Asiago cheese provides a lovely finishing touch that complements the herbs beautifully. Serve this alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed tenderstem broccoli for a balanced dinner that feels like a genuine treat from a trattoria kitchen.
