Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large high-rimmed sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken sausage (casing removed). Use a spoon or spatula to break the sausage into crumbles. Cook for about 5 minutes to get some color and partially cook the sausage.

Step 2

Add the red pepper flakes, umami seasoning, salt, pepper, fresh thyme leaves, shaved Brussels sprouts, and garlic. Stir to combine and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add an additional splash of olive oil if the pan is too dry. Mix in the zest and juice of 1/2 a lemon and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook pasta in salted water to al dente according to package instructions. Transfer directly over to the sausage mixture once cooked. Add the grated parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup of pasta water. Combine well and add another 1/2 cup of pasta water as needed to create a sauce. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper as needed.

Step 4

Divide among bowls to serve. Top with additional lemon juice, parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of olive oil as desired.
