Instructions
 

Pasta

  • Prepare Pasta following directions on package. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water for use in sauce.

Sauce Preparation

  • Heat Skillet on medium high adding a couple pats of Butter and a drizzle of Olive Oil.
  • When Butter is melted and Oil heated through, add sliced Sweet Peppers, Mushrooms, Onions, Garlic & Cabbage. Begin sautéing until vegetables begin to soften.
  • Add the chopped Kielbasa, Bacon Fat (Optional) and stir to incorporate ingredients
  • At this point, add your Garlic Herb Seasoning, Onion Powder, Cumin, Creole Seasoning and a generous pinch of Salt & Black Pepper. Continue to stir ingredients together.
  • Once the Kielbasa begins to cook through and render its fat, add the can of Fire Roasted Tomatoes, Sugar and Heavy Cream continuously stirring to meld flavors together. At this point, you may taste the sauce to see if additional seasonings are needed.
  • Lower cooking temperature to medium and continue simmering until the sauce thickens for approximately 10-15 minutes.

Incorporate Pasta

  • At this point, Pasta should already be prepared.
  • Gently add Pasta into Skillet folding Pasta into sauce being sure to coat everything. You may not need to use all the Pasta. It will be based on your preference on the ratio of Pasta:Sauce. You may add reserved Pasta water at this time if Sauce is too thick or if you are looking for a little lighter sauce without losing any flavor.
  • Add Langostino Lobster and give it a final toss to incorporate flavor. Let it simmer for additional 5-10 minutes stirring occasionally to finish up the cooking process.
  • Top off with Basil and Fresh Parmesan Cheese.

Servings

  • Serve with a side salad and crusty warm bread for a fabulous date night right in the comfort of your home.
