Spicy Sausage Pasta 

This looks delicious. I wasn't planning on posting anything this morning since I already did the Oriental Chicken Salad. I saw this on Kevin and Amanda and quickly created this mini post to share it with you. I am always looking for something different and looks has a nice kick to it. If you haven't seen their site it is a great blog and they have a wonderful picture tutorial you can see on their site for this recipe. 

Spicy Sausage Pasta

1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb smoked sausage
1.5 cups diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (10 oz) can Ro-Tel tomatoes and green chile's, Mild
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 oz Penni pasta
1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, each
1 cup Monterrey Jack cheese, shredded
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions

1. Add olive 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.

2. Add broth, tomatoes, cream, pasta, salt and pepper and stir. Bring to a boil, cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.

3. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle with scallions. Broil until cheese is melted, spotty brown, and bubbly.

Hope you enjoy this quick mini post. Would love to hear your comments. Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!
