Ingredients
- 1 lb smoked sausage, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
Instructions
- Brown the sausage and bell peppers: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the sliced smoked sausage. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the sausage starts to brown. Add the sliced bell pepper and continue cooking for another 5 minutes until the peppers soften and the sausage is fully browned.
- Add cream and Cajun seasoning: Pour in the heavy cream and sprinkle the Cajun seasoning over the sausage and peppers. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Simmer until thickened: Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cream thickens to a sauce-like consistency.
Notes
- Serve this creamy Cajun sausage skillet over cooked rice or pasta for a complete meal.
- Adjust the Cajun seasoning to your preferred spice level.
- For added veggies, consider stirring in onions or garlic during the browning step.
