It takes just 30 mins
Serves 2
What you need :
Olive Oil, 2 Tbsp.
2 Diced Chicken Breasts
Andouille or Smoked Sausage, 250g, sliced
Garlic, 3 cloves, minced
Red Onion, 1/2, sliced
Red & Green Peppers, sliced
Mushrooms, 150g
500g of the pasta of your choice (we used linguine)
Chicken broth, 1l
Heavy Cream, 120ml
Shredded Parmesan, 25g
Cajun Seasoning, 1 Tbsp.
(You can use a store-bought Cajun spice mix or make your own using equal parts cayenne pepper, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.)
Directions:
1.Pour olive oil into the pot. Add diced chicken breast to the pot, cover with cajun seasoning, and stir until the chicken is evenly seasoned. Then, add sliced sausage and stir. Cook the meat on medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
2.Once the meat is cooked, add in the garlic, onion, peppers, and mushrooms, and stir. Continue stirring for 3-5 minutes as the veggies cook down.
3.Add the dry pasta to the pot (if using long, thin noodles, break in half), then pour in the chicken broth. Stir until everything is well-mixed. Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, keep covered bring the heat down to a simmer for 10 minutes (stirring every two minutes). If there still extra chicken broth, you can discard it, cook longer until the liquid evaporates, or add a little cornstarch to thicken the liquid.
4.Lastly, add heavy cream and parmesan and stir until your pasta is well blended. Garnish with green onions, more parmesan, a sprinkle of cajun seasoning (if you want some extra spice), and salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
