I had some leftover Easter ham and had some frozen broccoli in the freezer, so I based this recipe on Chef Lorac's Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta (please try this when you get a chance its great). Be careful with this, it starts out as wonderfully mild sauce, but it sneaks up on you with the heat (at least it does for me :) Submitted on April 19th 2006. Ingredients:
8 ounces cooked ham (roughly chopped) |
6 ounces angel hair pasta |
1 1/2 cups frozen chopped broccoli |
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (used cajun seasoning) |
2 tablespoons margarine |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large pot of water, add broccoli and pasta; cook until pasta is at desired doneness. 2. Drain and keep warm. 3. In a large skillet, melt margarine. Add ham and Cajun seasoning. 4. Stir until ham is well coated. 5. Lower heat and add rest of ingredients except grated parmesan cheese; heat through. 6. Pour over pasta and broccoli. 7. Sprinkle with cheese and toss until pasta is coated. |
