Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausage and Chicken

    Slice the Cajun sausage into bite-sized pieces. Cut the chicken thighs into cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Chop the bell pepper, onion, celery, and mince the garlic.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Sausage and Chicken

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced sausage and cubed chicken. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Vegetables

    Stir in the chopped bell pepper, onion, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 5

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt over the mixture. Stir well to combine.

  4. 6

    Add Liquids

    Pour in the chicken broth and tomato sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  5. 7

    Cook Pasta

    Once boiling, add the penne pasta. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 15-20 minutes until the pasta is cooked and has absorbed some of the sauce.
