Chicago Spaghetti is a cozy, old-school Midwestern pasta that feels like something you’d get at a neighborhood Italian-American spot on a chilly evening. It’s hearty, saucy, and unapologetically comforting, built around rich tomato sauce, savory Italian sausage, and tender spaghetti that soaks up every bit of flavor. Unlike lighter Italian styles,
Chicago Spaghetti leans bold and filling, with green bell peppers and onions adding sweetness and depth, and a slow simmer that brings everything together into one cohesive dish. This is the kind of recipe that feeds a family, fills the kitchen with an incredible aroma, and tastes even better the next day.
It’s not fancy or fussy just honest, satisfying food meant to be served in big bowls with plenty of grated cheese on top. If you love classic red-sauce pasta with a little extra heart and soul, this Chicago-style favorite is about to earn a permanent spot in your dinner rotation.
