Css 子菜单的背景不占用所有空间

在我的侧边栏中，当我将鼠标悬停在子菜单(公文包或联系人)上时

我希望红色背景占据整个单元格的背景.

你知道我怎么才能创造出这个吗？

我想问题出在这里？但我看不出我应该加什么优先级？

.sidebar .nav-links li:hover {
  background: red;
}

非常感谢

以下是通过Stackblitz进行的演示

<ul class="nav-links" id="nav-links" >
   <li *ngFor="let item of menuSidebar" #itemEl >
      <div *ngIf="item.sub_menu.length > 0" class="dropdown-title" (click)="showSubmenu(itemEl)">
      <a>
      <i [class]="item.icon"></i>
      <span class="link_name">{{item.link_name}}</span>
      </a>
      <i class='bx bxs-chevron-down arrow'></i>
      </div>
      <ul class="sub-menu" [class.blank]="item.sub_menu.length == 0">
         <li><a class="link_name">{{item.link_name}}</a></li>
         <li *ngFor="let item_sub of item.sub_menu" routerLinkActive="active">
            <a [routerLink]="[item_sub.link]">{{item_sub.link_name}}</a>
         </li>
      </ul>
   </li>
</ul>
