Bring a large pot of water to a boil with half the salt. Add the pasta and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until tender. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta.
While the pasta cooks, heat half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage coins and cook for 3 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more until browned and cooked through. Remove the sausage from the pan. Done when browned and firm, 165°F.
Add the remaining oil to the same skillet. Add the red and yellow bell peppers and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the sausage to the skillet along with the cooked pasta and the remaining salt. Add a splash of the reserved pasta water and toss for 2 minutes to coat everything evenly.
