Penne Chile Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Dump all ingredients other than extra stock and pasta into lightly sprayed slow cooker... also, reserve about 1/4-1/2 of the amount the spices, in case more is needed, later. Spices sometimes reduce their strength while cooking in a slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for about 7-9 hours, until meat is done. Taste, and add seasonings as desired.
  • If you are cooking the pasta in the slow cooker, add that now along with the extra stock.
  • Cook, covered on low for about 30-60 minutes, stirring often, until pasta is al dente. Add more liquid, if needed, as pasta absorbs it, but make sure to keep stirring. :)
  • If you are cooking the pasta separately, do so, then add cooked pasta to the slow cooker and stir well.
  • *If NOT adding uncooked pasta but chili looks too thin to mix well with the cooked noodles, then remove lid and let simmer in the slow cooker for about an hour. this wasn't a problem at all, for me, as the liquid, as described above, worked perfectly for cooking the pasta with the chili, but had I not done that, the consistency still would have been good. All slow cookers are different, though, as I've learned, so adjust accordingly!
