Slap a bib on … and get your pasta on.

Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
  • 2 whole Chicken Sausage Links, Casings Removed And Cut Into 1" Slices
  • ½ pounds Shrimp, Peeled And De-veined
  • 1 Tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
  • 4 whole Servings Of Cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti Noodles (your Preferred Serving Size)
  • 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 cup Purple Onion, Diced
  • 1 cup Low Sodium Chicken Stock
  • 1 ear Corn, Cut Off The Cob
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • ½ teaspoons Garlic Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
  • ½ teaspoons Smoked Paprika
  • 1 Tablespoon Italian Seasonings
  • 5-½ cups Cherry Tomatoes, Cut In Half

Preparation

In a large cast iron skillet add 1 tablespoon oil over medium high heat. Toss in chicken sausages and brown on each side, about 3 minutes total per side or until nicely browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Toss shrimp with Old Bay seasoning. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet and sear shrimp. This should take 2 minutes on the first side, then flip and cook another 1 minute. Remove from skillet and set the shrimp with the chicken sausage. Cover and keep warm.

Meanwhile cook pasta according to package directions.

Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add in onions and garlic. Let them bloom 2 minutes. Add chicken stock, corn, and the remaining spices. Let simmer 5 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes and simmer another 5 minutes.

Add shrimp and chicken sausage back to the skillet. Toss pasta into the skillet and mix the whole yummy mess together.

Top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and green onions. Enjoy.

This is a great easy pasta dish. I added a little more spice because I’m from the Caribbean and everything there is spicy,spicy, spicy
