Cajun Sausage Alfredo
Ingredients
  • 8 ounces pasta, cooked, drained
  • 1 (14 ounce) package Hillshire Farm® Smoked Sausage, diagonally cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
1
Begin by filling a substantial container with salted water and placing it on the stovetop to reach its boiling point.
2
Once the water has reached its boiling stage, carefully add your chosen pasta shape and continue to cook it, stirring every now and then, until it reaches the ideal level of doneness - still slightly firm but yielding to pressure.
3
The cooking time will vary depending on the specific pasta shape and package instructions you follow, so be sure to refer to those for guidance.
4
While the pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the sausage inside until it's nicely browned on all sides, flipping occasionally for even cooking.
5
In the same skillet you've been using to cook the sausage, add a splash of cream and sprinkle some Cajun seasoning in for flavor.
6
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer gently until it starts to thicken up nicely.
7
Remove the skillet from the heat source and stir in some grated Parmesan cheese to add an extra layer of flavor.
8
Finally, combine the cooked pasta with the creamy sauce and toss everything together to serve.
