19 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deviened
8 ounces smoked sausage, chopped into small cubes
1 large onion, chopped
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1 teaspoon louisiana hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

1
Cook Tortellini in boiling water just until they start to float. Rinse with cold water. Toss pasta with the teaspoon of olive oil to avoid sticking.
2
Try to use either andouille or Emeril's kicked up smoked sausage. You want a spicy sausage for this dish.
3
Melt the butter in a sauce pan. Saute smoked sausage, onion, celery, bell peppers, and garlic. Let cook on Med-high for 3-4 minutes. Add shrimp and let cook another 2 minutes, or until shrimp looks mostly pink.
4
Add wine, cream, creole seasoning, herbs, hot sauce and fresh black pepper. Turn temp down to Med and let reduce for 3-4 minutes.
5
Pour sauce over the pasta and toss in the Parmesan cheese.
6
Serve imediately with french bread and butter. Goes great with a nice salad. I recommend a nice crisp chardonnay wine to go with it.
7
Sometimes I even add catfish nuggets to this dish. I saute them with the shrimp and sausage. It's pretty good that way too.
