ONE POT KIELBASA PASTA RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• Add olive oil to a 4-5 quart saute pan over medium high heat. Fry the smoked kielbasa and onions. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chicken broth, tomatoes, heavy cream, pasta, and seasonings. Simmer for 15 minutes, or untill pasta is tender. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining cheese and cover until cheese is melted, spotty brown, and bubbly. Sprinkle with sliced scallions and serve. This only makes 4 large servings, so if you are feeding a larger group or want leftovers,I'd recommend doubling the recipe, it's well worth it! Enjoy!

PASTA SKILLET WITH KIELBASA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil for pasta.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a deep skillet. Add onion and garlic to the hot oil and saute just until tender, about 5 minutes. Add kielbasa to the skillet and cook and stir until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, mushrooms, sugar, balsamic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Reduce heat and let sauce simmer while you cook pasta.
• Add penne to the pot of boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes, stirring peas into pasta during last 2 minutes of cooking time.
• Drain pasta and transfer to sauce. Stir to combine and add basil. Heat over medium-low heat so pasta can absorb liquid from sauce, about 5 minutes. Stir in Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese and serve.
