Smoky Chorizo and Roasted Red Pepper Pasta
Sautéed lean turkey chorizo and roasted red peppers tossed with high-protein chickpea pasta in a smoky, vibrant tomato sauce that delivers a satisfying kick.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz ground turkey chorizo
1 oz chickpea penne pasta
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup roasted red peppers
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 clove garlic
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 cup tomato sauce
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea penne pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey chorizo to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and cooked through.
Stir in the diced yellow onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced roasted red peppers, tomato sauce, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet, stirring to combine and simmering for 2 minutes.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of pasta water, and add both to the skillet along with the baby spinach.
Toss everything together until the spinach is wilted and the pasta is well-coated in the smoky sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
