Creamy Skillet Tortellini with Sweet Potatoes and Spinach

Posted in: Sweet Potato, Spinach

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large sweet potato (about 3/4 to 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 cup chicken or vegetable broth

1 (5-ounce) bag baby spinach or 1 large bunch spinach, rinsed and torn into bite-sized pieces

1/2 cup half-and-half

1 (12-ounce) bag frozen cheese tortellini

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed 10- or 12-inch skillet over medium heat.
  2. Uncover the skillet and add the broth, scraping the bottom of the pan with a spatula to dissolve the browned bits. Add the spinach in handfuls, stirring until it wilts down, before adding more.
  3. Stir in the half-and-half, then cover once more and bring the liquid to a simmer.
  4. Uncover and stir in the tortellini. Cook, stirring frequently, for 10 to 15 minutes, until the tortellini are plump and cooked through.
  5. Serve immediately.
