Cajun Pork Alfredo Pasta
- 1- 1/2 pound Pork, Cubed (I Used Loin)
- 1- 1/2 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning, Use Less If You Don't Like It Hot
- 1 pound Mostaccioli Rigati Pasta, Cooked According To Package Instructions For Al Dente
- 15 ounces, weight Canned Black Beans, Drained
- 15 ounces, weight Petite Diced Stewed Tomatoes
- 1/4 cups Butter
- 1 cup Whole Milk
- 2 cloves Garlic, Crushed
- 1- 1/2 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/4 cups Chopped Fresh Parsley
- Sprinkle the pork with the Cajun seasoning, and if you have time, let it sit in the refrigerator for a few hours to absorb the flavoring.
- If not, go ahead and brown and saute the meat in a skillet over medium high heat until thoroughly browned on all sides and cooked through.
- While the pork cooks, prepare the Alfredo sauce.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Pour milk into butter and allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes.
- After simmering, add garlic, Parmesan cheese and parsley.
- Stir and heat for about 2 minutes, to allow the flavors to mix.
- Remove from heat.
- Combine cooked and drained pasta, pork, beans and tomatoes in a pot over medium heat.
- I like to use the pot that the pasta was cooked in, as it is warm.
- Pour Alfredo sauce over all, stir, heat through and serve.
