Servings: 8- Say hello to a taste of the bayou with this creamy Cajun pasta! Savory sausage and a bevy of vegetables get a spicy kick with a Cajun-inspired seasoning blend, all tossed in a luscious creamy sauce. Best of all, it all comes together in just one pot for easy prep and clean-up!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 pound spicy Italian sausage links, cut into rounds
- Kosher salt, to taste
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons McCormick® Jazzy Spice Blend
- 1 pound dried penne pasta
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
- 8 ounces button mushrooms, stemmed and sliced
- 1 14.5-ounce can of fire-roasted tomatoes
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 5 ounces cream cheese, cubed
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced, for garnish
Instructions
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium heat until just bubbling. Add the sausage, then season with salt. Brown for 2 minutes on one side, then stir and brown on the other side for 2 minutes more.
- Add the onion, season with salt, and cook for 2 minutes, until starting to soften. Add the jalapeño, garlic, and tomato paste. Stir to distribute the tomato paste. Add the Jazzy spice blend and stir to combine.
- Add the pasta, red and green peppers, mushrooms, and salt and stir to combine. Pour in the tomatoes and stock. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, until the pasta is cooked through and the peppers are tender but not mushy.
- Mix in the cream cheese to create a thick, creamy sauce.
- Serve garnished with scallions, if desired.
- Enjoy!
