Penne with Shrimp, Smoked Sausage and BBQ Chipotle Sauce
- 1 pound Smoked Sausage
- 2 cups Heavy Cream
- 1 pound Penne Pasta
- 1 pound Shrimp, Shelled And Deveined
- 1/2 teaspoons Sea Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Black Pepper
- Grated Parmesan For Garnish
- 1 Tablespoon Diced Tomato
- 1 Tablespoon Diced Scallion
- 1 cup Sweet BBQ Sauce
- 1 Lemon, Juiced
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 2 Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Or More To Taste
- In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, cook the sausage links until browned.
- While the links are cooking, make the chipotle sauce: Put the BBQ sauce, lemon juice, Dijon mustard and chipotle peppers with some of the adobe sauce in a blender and blend until smooth.
- When the links are fried to your liking add the cream and chipotle sauce into the pan with the links.
- Cook on medium heat or a low simmer for 20 to 30 minutes to really get the smoky flavor of the links into the sauce.
- Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package minus 1 minute.
- When done, drain the pasta but reserve a cup or two of the pasta water, just in case you need it.
- After 20-30 minutes of simmering, add the shrimp to the links and chipotle sauce.
- Cook until shrimp are pink.
- This only takes a few minutes so add it at the last minute so that the shrimp doesnt over cook.
- Add the pasta into the saute pan with the links and shrimp and toss to coat.
- If the sauce has become a little thick, add some of the pasta water.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with fresh grated parmesan, diced tomatoes and scallions.
