How to make Cajun Chicken Pasta

Ingredients

Directions

For 4 servings:

2 chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips

2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning

1 tablespoon of olive oil

1 tablespoon of unsalted butter

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 small onion, chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 cup of heavy cream

1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Note: You can also use other types of pasta, such as penne or fettuccine, to make Cajun Chicken Pasta. Additionally, you can adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning based on your preference.
