I had some leftover Easter ham and had some frozen broccoli in the freezer, so I based this recipe on Chef Lorac's Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta (please try this when you get a chance its great). Be careful with this, it starts out as wonderfully mild sauce, but it sneaks up on you with the heat (at least it does for me :) Submitted on April 19th 2006.
Ingredients:
8 ounces cooked ham (roughly chopped)
6 ounces angel hair pasta
1 1/2 cups frozen chopped broccoli
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (used cajun seasoning)
2 tablespoons margarine
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. In a large pot of water, add broccoli and pasta; cook until pasta is at desired doneness.
2. Drain and keep warm.
3. In a large skillet, melt margarine. Add ham and Cajun seasoning.
4. Stir until ham is well coated.
5. Lower heat and add rest of ingredients except grated parmesan cheese; heat through.
6. Pour over pasta and broccoli.
7. Sprinkle with cheese and toss until pasta is coated.
