Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 pound linguini pasta
  • 1/2 pound andouille sausage (sliced)
  • 2 small chicken breasts (cut into half-inch cubes)
  • 1/2 pound shrimp (deveined)
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste for spice)
  • 1 14-ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking
  • Chopped Italian parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cook the linguini according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside to keep warm.
  • Season the cubed chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary. Cook the shrimp and sausage for 2-3 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove and set aside with the chicken.
  • Reduce heat to medium, add olive oil, and cook the celery, onions, and bell pepper for about 8 minutes until softened. Then add garlic and cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, Old Bay seasoning, and cayenne pepper. Add the crushed tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Return the chicken, shrimp, and sausage to the skillet. Add the cooked linguini and toss to combine. Adjust seasoning as needed and garnish with chopped parsley.
