Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Mince the garlic. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Proteins

    Season the shrimp, chicken, and steak with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside. Cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, then remove and let it rest. Finally, cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes until pink. Set aside all proteins.

Cooking the Pasta

  1. 3

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccine or penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of the pasta water.

Making the Sauce

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet used for the proteins, add the chopped bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

  2. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour in the heavy cream and the spicy brown sauce (or spicy Alfredo). Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.

  3. 6

    Add Proteins

    Add the cooked chicken, steak, and shrimp back to the skillet. Toss gently to mix everything together and heat through.

  4. 7

    Finish the Dish

    Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and incorporated. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate and Serve

    Serve the Rasta Pasta hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper if desired.
