Pasta with Chorizo

Directions

• 1 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in fettuccine; return to a boil.
• 2 Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite (about 11 minutes).
• 3 Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• 4 While pasta cooks, prepare chorizo in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat until fully cooked; about 4-6 minutes breaking it up into smaller pieces with spoon.
• 5 Remove chorizo from pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Remove all but 1 teaspoon of chorizo fat and return to heat. Add onions and cook until softened (about 4 minutes) and add garlic and salt and pepper. Continue to cook an additional minute.
• 6 Return chorizo to pan reduce heat and add chicken broth and cream; stir to combine. Add cooked pasta and combine well.
• 7 Serve warm garnished with cilantro.
