Ingredients:
1/2 c milk or heavy cream
1 tbsp minced garlic about 2-3 fresh cloves
2 c chicken broth
1 10 oz. can of diced tomatoes (with or without chiles) (like Rotel)
1 c shredded Cheddar-Jack cheese
1 c diced onion about 1 medium onion
1 lb. Smoked Turkey Sausage, sliced
salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/3 c sliced scallions for garnish
8 oz. dry pasta like rotini, penne or farfalle
Directions:
Place a 5-quart pan on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add olive oil and allow it to become hot. Add the sausage and onions, then cook for a few minutes or until crumbly and brown.
Add garlic and the seasonings, then sauté for about a minute or until aromatic.
Add milk, pasta, chicken broth, seasonings, and undrained tomatoes. Stir everything just until combined. Also, don’t forget to scrape the bottom of the pan to get the browned bits.
Cover the pan with the lid and allow the mixture to boil.
Turn the heat down to low, then simmer the dish for 15 minutes or until the pasta is al dente. Remove from the heat.
Add 1/2 cup of cheese and stir until completely melted.
Sprinkle the other half cup of cheese on top. Cover the pan with the lid and allow it to melt as well.
Scatter freshly chopped scallions on top to garnish.
Serve right away. Enjoy!
Notes:
Remove some of the thin liquid before adding the cheese to the dish.
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. They can last up to 5 days. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
