Recipes Main Dishes Pasta Chicken Penne, Peppers, and Chicken-Apple Sausage Saute 3.9 (23) 18 Reviews 9 Photos This recipe originated with my son, who makes it with very spicy chicken sausages. I loved it so much that I adapted it to suit our taste. Because my husband prefers less spicy food, I use milder chicken-apple sausage. This is one of our favorite dinners.
