Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 lb spicy italian sausage, cut into rounds
kosher salt, to taste
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoons McCormick® Jazzy Spice Blend
1 lb dried pasta, penne
1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
8 oz mushroom, stemmed and sliced
14 ½ oz fire-roasted tomato, 1 can
4 cups chicken stock
5 oz cream cheese, cubed
2 scallions, thinly sliced for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium heat until just bubbling. Add the sausage and then season with salt. Brown for 2 minutes on 1 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!

CREAMY CAJUN PASTA



Creamy Cajun Pasta image

This Cajun Pasta recipe is naturally dairy-free, and you get to control the spice level! It's vegetarian as written, but you can customize it with any add-ins you love.

Provided by Megan Gilmore

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces penne pasta ((gluten-free, if needed))
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil ((12 grams))
1/2 red onion (, chopped (140 grams))
2 bell peppers ((I use red & green; 128 grams each))
4 ounces cremini mushrooms (, chopped (117 grams))
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilies (, reserve juices for sauce)
salt & pepper
1/2 cup raw cashews ((65 grams))
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika ((or regular paprika))
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil (I add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water), then cook the pasta according to the directions on the package. When it's done cooking, drain and set aside.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a separate large skillet. Saute the onion, peppers, and mushrooms until they start to soften, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season the veggies with a 1/2 teaspoon of salt as you stir, and keep this on medium-low heat, so you can stir together the spice blend as the veggies cook.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the Cajun spice blend. Start with just a pinch of Cayenne pepper, because you can always add more later, but you can't undo spice! An 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper makes this dish quite spicy, so I recommend starting with less than that.
  • To make the creamy sauce, drain the juices from the can of diced tomatoes directly into your blender. To this, add in the cashews, a 1/4 cup of water, and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Blend until very smooth, with no visible cashew pieces remaining.
  • Once the veggies are tender, add in the spice blend and stir briefly. Then, add in the diced tomatoes, creamy sauce, and the pasta, and toss well.
  • Taste the pasta, and adjust any seasoning, as needed. You can add more salt to boost the flavor, some freshly ground black pepper, and another pinch of cayenne pepper, if you like things spicier, or a little more smoked paprika, for more of a smoky flavor. Serve warm, with any extra garnishes you like. (I added chopped green onions and cilantro.) Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
