One Pot Pastalaya Serves 6 Recipe 435

Steps:

• Coat a very large skillet (about 14 inches in diameter) with a lid with the olive oil. On medium heat, warm the oil and add the sliced sausage. After the sausage begins to render some of its fat, raise the heat and add the chicken. Sauté until the sausage and chicken just begin to brown a bit. Stir the onion, celery, bell pepper, garlic, paprika, thyme, basil, oregano, and cayenne (if using) into the sausage and chicken and sauté over medium heat until the vegetables soften. Crush the tomatoes and add them, along with their juices, to the pan. Simmer for about 10 minutes, partially covered. Add one cup of the water, bring up to a low boil, and stir in the pasta. The pasta should take about 12 minutes to cook, so at the 7-minute mark, add the shrimp and continue to simmer until the pasta is al dente and the shrimp is just cooked through. If you need to loosen the dish up a bit, add that extra 1/2 cup of water during the last few minutes. Serve in bowls, and garnish with the green onion.

Steps:

• 1. Melt butter in large Dutch oven pot, add seasoning vegetables & saute until just turning tender. Add sausage & brown for a few minutes. Stirring so vegetables dont burn.
• 2. Add chicken, rotel, soup, & broth. Bring to a boil. As soon as it comes to a boil, break spaghetti noodles in half add noodles to the mix. Bring this to another boil. At this point, add salt & pepper to taste. The salt taste should be a little heavy at this point because the noodles will soak up a good bit.
• 3. Cover the pot & turn the heat to low/simmer. Cook until noodles are done & the liquid has been absorbed. This should be about 20 minutes or so. Serve with hot crusty garlic bread.
