Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add onion, celery, and carrot to skillet: cook and stir in sausage drippings until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir cooked sausage, chicken broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and garlic into the skillet. Simmer sauce until flavors combine, about 15 minutes.
