Copycat Maggiano's Taylor Street Baked Ziti

• portions: 2 servings
• temps actif: 15 minutes
• temps total: 30 minutes

Ingrédients

8 oz Ziti Noodles

8 oz Italian Sausage (use ground sausage or raw cased sausage)

16 oz Tomato Sauce

1 tsp Dried Oregano

1/2 tbsp Minced Garlic

2/3 cup Shredded Mozzarella

1 tbsp Olive Oil (for frying)

Instructions

If using cased Italian sausages, break them open and remove the ground meat. If you bought just ground Italian sausage, proceed as is.

Start a pot of water boiling, enough for 8oz of pasta.

Heat the olive oil on medium high in a skillet large enough to hold 16 oz of sauce. Fry the Italian Sausage until almost completely browned, about 5 minutes. It will finish in the sauce. Break up the ground sausage into small bits as if it were ground beef.

Add the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, and garlic, stir to combine. Simmer for 10-15 minutes. You can probably start your noodles now. Follow the box instructions.

Combine the cooked noodles and sauce in a greased oven safe dish. I used a 9” ceramic pie dish.

Cover ziti with the shredded mozzarella.

Broil on high for 1-2 minutes. Mine was perfect at about 1:30. I put my dish on the second rack from the top, which was the perfect distance to get that browning pattern on top. Your oven may perform differently.
