Tex-Mex One-Skillet Pasta
This is one of my all time favorite recipes and it is so easy and quick to make. Original link to this recipe is here but I have changed it a bit from the original.
Ingredients:
1 pack Chicken Sausage - I like Chipotle & Monterey Jack
1 mediuim white onion
1 can corn
1 jalepeno
1 cup green scallions
2 cups chicken broth
1 {10 oz} can Rotel
8 oz orecchiette pasta
Garnish:
Shredded Cheddar
Scallions
Avocado cubed
I like to start by chopping everything up since this is such a fast recipe.
First Step:
slice and saute the chicken sausage until the edges are browned
Next: Add the onion/scallion mixture and the jalepeno, saute for 5 min and add the corn.
Next: Add the Rotel and 2 cups chicken broth
Rather than buy chicken broth, I like to just buy the below base broth and mix a large spoonful in with 2 cups hot water.
Let this sit for about 20 minutes for the pasta to cook.
Garnish with the scallions, cheese and avocado and you are good to go!
