Supreme Pizza Pasta Skillet

  • 1½ tablespoon neutral oil
  • 1 medium onion 1" diced
  • 2 medium green bell peppers 1" diced
  • 2 pinches salt
  • 1 tablespoon Homemade Italian Seasoning*
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste

  • 1 8oz box gluten free tubular or shaped noodles I use Banza chickpea pasta**
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • ⅓-½ cup reserved sausage drippings

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400℉. Cover large rimmed baking sheet with tin foil if desired.
  • In a large mixing bowl add ground beef, Italian seasoning, caraway seeds, coriander, sage, allspice, and red wine vinegar. Use your hand to mix gently to combine all ingredients. Don't over mix.

  • Scoop about ½ tablespoon amount of sausage mixture and gently shape into ovals. Place directly on baking sheet with a little space between each one. Bake until cooked through to 160℉ and juices run clear, about 8 minutes. Reserve ⅓-½ cup of meat drippings for later. While sausage is baking start working on the pasta skillet.

  • Add neutral oil in a large deep skillet or braiser over MEDIUM heat. When pan is very warm add diced onions and peppers with 2 pinches of salt. Sauté stirring often until they begin to soften about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add Italian seasoning and minced garlic. Sauté stirring constantly until spices are fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  • Add tomato paste. Stir to combine and then cook stirring frequently to toast tomato paste to a deep red color, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add mushrooms, olives, diced tomatoes, pepperoni, pasta, meat drippings and chicken broth. Stir to combine, increase heat to MED-HIGH to bring to a boil.

  • Reduce heat to MED or MED-LOW to maintain a steady simmer. Cook pasta to the lowest recommended time. For Banza** pasta it was 7 minutes. Stir frequently during this time to prevent gluten free pasta from clumping together.
  • Remove from heat and add homemade sausage. Stir to combine. Let sit uncovered for about 5 minutes to continue thickening. Serve warm.

Notes

*I use my Homemade Italian Seasoning in this recipe. However, if you prefer you can use your favorite store bought Italian seasoning or your own recipe. 
**I like to use Banza chickpea based pasta. If you want to make this dish paleo friendly use a cassava pasta like this brand.
