Cajun Sausage Tortellini
5 mins prepServes 5
A hearty one pan meal of Cajun sausage and cheese tortellini simmered in chicken broth and tossed in a creamy, spiced Parmesan sauce with bell peppers and onions.
0 Set your skillet to medium high heat. Toss in the sausage, bell pepper, and onions. Let them cook for 7–10 minutes — you want the sausage to start browning on the edges. Take everything out and drain the extra grease.
1 Pour the chicken broth into the same skillet and bring it to a boil. Drop in the tortellini and let it cook for about 15 minutes until it's tender but still has a little bite.
2 Turn the heat down and stir in the tomato paste, heavy cream, onion powder, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
3 Put the sausage, peppers, and onions back into the skillet. Give it a good stir to mix everything together, then dish it up and enjoy!
