Method
Add cooking oil to an oven-safe skillet over medium high heat until just smoking. Add sausage and onions, and cook until lightly browned — about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant — about 30 seconds.
Add broth, tomatoes, cream, uncooked pasta, salt and pepper, then stir. Bring to a boil, cover skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle with green onion. Broil until cheese is melted, spotty brown and bubbly.
