Ingredients
Method
- Generously season 1 lb of pork with salt and pepper. Heat ½ cup vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat, add pork, and cook until no pink remains. Lower heat, cover, and simmer for 20–25 minutes.
- While pork simmers, chop onion, bell pepper, celery, and green onions. Dice 1 lb boneless chicken thighs into small pieces.
- Add chicken to the pork, cook for 10 minutes, then remove both meats with a slotted spatula, letting drippings stay in the pot.
- Slice 1 lb smoked sausage, add to the pot, and sear until browned. Remove and set aside with pork and chicken.
- Add chopped vegetables to the pot, stirring to lift browned bits. Cook for 30 minutes until soft, adding 1 tbsp minced garlic, ½ tbsp Creole seasoning, and 3 beef bouillon cubes after 10 minutes.
- Stir in 3 ½ cups water, 1 can cream of chicken soup, 1 tbsp hot sauce, and 2 tbsp Kitchen Bouquet. Mix well.
- Increase heat, bring to a boil, then add 1 lb bow-tie pasta and all cooked meats. Stir to combine, pressing pasta into the liquid.
- Preheat oven to 300°F, cover pot, and bake for 1 hour. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving hot.
