Cajun Chicken Pasta Recipe





4 ounces linguine pasta


2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips


2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning


2 tablespoons butter


1 thinly sliced green onion


1 to 2 cups heavy whipping cream


2 tablespoons chopped sun dried tomatoes.


1/4 teaspoon salt


1/4 teaspoon dried basil


1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper


1/8 teaspoon garlic powder


grated Parmesan cheese








We have a restaurant in here. One of my favorite thing to order there is ';Cajun Chicken Alfredo.'; I tried recreating it at home and came up with this recipe. Although it's not the same, it comes pretty darn close.





In a large pot with boiling water cook pasta until done then drain. Meanwhile, place chicken and Cajun seasoning in a bowl and toss to coat. In a large skillet over medium heat, saut茅 chicken in butter or margarine until chicken is tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat and green onion, heavy cream, tomatoes, basil, salt, garlic powder, black pepper and heat through. Pour over linguine and toss. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.





A side salad and a loaf of crusty bread for dipping would be good with it.\








Enjoy.
