Directions
- Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and add 2 tsp salt (may be omitted).
- Pour in the pasta, holding back the seasoning packet. Boil until firm but tender (al dente), then drain in a colander.
- Put 2 tbsp butter or olive oil in the empty pot and add 1 to 1½ lb of cubed, cooked meat. Sizzle until the edges are brown.
- Turn off the fire and wait until the sizzle stops. Pour in 1 cup of cold water, add the seasoning packet and bring back to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes, then add the cooked pasta back in. Mix well, let set for a minute and serve.
Serving tips
- Use smoked sausage, andouille, leftover chicken or shrimp. A mix of two meats works well.
- Serve with hot French bread and a green salad for an easy weeknight dinner.
- Top with sliced green onions and a little chopped parsley just before serving.
- Makes a great potluck dish. It holds well in a covered pan and the pasta won't go mushy.
