How to Make Black Bean And Pasta Skillet

  1. Cook 1 pound rotini pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. While pasta cooks, brown 1 pound ground pork in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon paprika and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste).
  5. Add the cooked pasta, 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), and 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans (rinsed and drained) to the skillet.
  6. Stir to combine thoroughly.
  7. Add 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon dried basil, and 1 tablespoon dried parsley. Heat through, stirring occasionally, until heated through and flavors have melded (about 2-3 minutes).
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt as needed.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
