The spice in this cajun chicken pasta recipe is solely attributed to the cajun seasoning. The recipe calls for 2 teaspoons, which gives it a mild to medium spicy flavor. Add more for spicier pasta, add only 1 teaspoon for mild.
My fettuccine Alfredo consists of fettuccine enrobed in a rich cream sauce with butter, 4 types of cheese, and about 4 times the usual amount of cheese. Because cheese is my life. Then just for fun, I work in cajun spiced chicken and tomatoes. Kind of kicks the whole arrangement up a few notches. I think Alfredo would approve.

This pasta is super easy to make with only a few ingredients. Cook pasta according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and set aside.

Stir in basil, garlic, pepper, sundried tomatoes, and heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer until the sauce has thickened. Add the cooked pasta and toss to coat. Garnish the pasta with some parmesan cheese, if desired.
I think i'm going to make this tonight! It sounds quick and easy. Also, as I read the recipe and saw "cajun seasoning", I thought to myself that I can use the creole seasoning we have. Then I saw in another comment that they're basically the same. While I thought I was being creative (ha!), i'm glad that they're basically the same. Then I know I won't mess it up. ?

Sear your chicken over medium high heat, until it's cooked thru and reaches an internal temperature of 165F. Once cooked thru, remove from the skillet and set aside. Don't drain or remove any of the drippings.

I used chicken in this recipe but it would also be just as delicious with cajun shrimp or cajun sausage. When using chicken, I like to buy chicken breast tenders and cut them into small bite sized pieces. Half of the chopping work is already done for you versus buying chicken breasts. 2ff7e9595c
