PASTA JAMBALAYA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in salted water according to the package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup cooking water; keep warm.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with 2 teaspoons of the Cajun seasoning, and add to the Dutch oven. Cook, stirring occasionally, just until the shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the Dutch oven; sprinkle the chicken with 2 teaspoons of the Cajun seasoning. Add the chicken to the Dutch oven, and cook, turning to brown on all sides, until done, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the plate with the shrimp. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the Dutch oven; add the sausage, onion, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic; cook 1 minute. Add the stock, and cook 30 seconds, stirring and scraping to loosen browned bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. Add the tomatoes, thyme, and remaining 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning; cook about 2 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream.
• Add the shrimp, chicken, pasta, and reserved 1 cup cooking water to the Dutch oven; toss to combine. Cook until the mixture is thoroughly heated and the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, and add the Parmesan and basil; toss to combine.

HOMEMADE SEMOLINA PASTA DOUGH

Steps:

• Mix flour and salt in a large bowl or on a marble work surface. Make a well in the center.
• Pour water into the well a little at a time, mixing it with the flour. Add as much water as needed to make a sticky but compact dough.
• Knead dough with your hands by flattening the ball, stretching it, and folding the top towards the center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is elastic and smooth, but not too soft, about 10 minutes.
• Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using.
• Roll out the dough with a pasta machine or with a rolling pin and cut into your favorite shapes.

SEMOLINA PASTA DOUGH

Steps:

• place first 5 ingredients in the bowl of a food processor using the metal blade.
• pulse food processor until dough takes on a corn-meal type texture.
• SLOWLY drizzle water while processor is running until dough forms a ball (sometimes we don't even need any water, so watch your dough closely).
• Remove dough to a lightly floured surface.
• From here we use our pasta machine to form our noodles. We use the widest setting for 6 cycles, lightly flowering the surfaces of the pasta if they become sticky. We then do only 1 cycle per setting until dough is to desired thickness.
• Let sheets sit for 15 minutes prior to using your preferred cutting technique.
• We spin the noodles into loose nests and dry on a cookie sheet for about 30 minute prior to cooking.
• These will cook very quickly, even the wider noodles in under 5 minute
• I have found a good tip for knowing when they are done is when they start to float!
