How To Make pastalaya

  • Step 1
    Pep all meat & vegetables. Heat oven proof dutch oven pot on stovetop on med/low. When hot add 1 Tbsp of oil & swirl around to cover bottom of pot. Brown pork for 20 min. on medium heat & add chicken, continue browning for another 10 min. Remove pork & chicken with slotted spoon to a bowl & then brown sausage. Remove sausage to bowl with meat, & add vegetables to pot & sauté a couple of minutes.
  • Step 2
    Add bouillon & Cajun seasoning. You will saute' on med/low for about an hour til all moisture is gone from vegetables & they are very soft & dark.
  • Step 3
    At this point heat oven to 300 degrees. Add a little water to stir up browned bits in pot & then add the rest of the water, soup, hot sauce, & browning sauce. Stir well. Add meat & pasta & make sure as much of the pasta is down into the liquid as possible. Bring to a boil, then cover & put into the oven for 1 hour. Let sit with lid on for 6-7 min. so pasta on top is steamed.
