Categories     Easy

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 oz linguine pasta
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tsp olive oil
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp cajun seasoning (divided)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2/3 cup diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp parsley (finely chopped, to serve)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 Tbsp salt. Cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water then drain, cover, and keep warm.
  • Beat the chicken breasts so that they are even in thickness and season all over with 1½ Tbsp cajun seasoning.
  • In a large non-reactive skillet*, heat 2 tsp oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken and sear on both sides. Turn heat down to low and saute until cooked through and 165˚F on a thermometer. Transfer to a cutting board, slice into thin strips, and cover to keep warm.
  • In the same skillet over medium heat, saute the butter and garlic for 30-60 seconds or until the garlic is fragrant. Add the diced tomatoes and saute another 2 minutes.
  • Add in the heavy whipping cream, remaining cajun seasoning, and parmesan cheese, and bring to a simmer. Season to taste if needed.
  • Add the sliced chicken and cooked pasta to the sauce and toss until combined and pasta and chicken are warmed through. Add warm reserved pasta water if desired to thin the sauce. Serve with freshly grated parmesan and chopped parsley.

CREAMY CAJUN CHICKEN SPAGHETTI



Creamy Cajun Chicken Spaghetti image

This is a (slightly) healthier version of one of my favorite comfort foods, which I adapted from my sister-in-law. You can always add more veggies to make this dish healthier...They'll be smothered with cheese so you won't even notice they're there, which is great for the kids! I recommend saving unused vegetable parts for a homemade stock. And, for easy clean up, use a plastic Crockpot liner.

CAJUN CHICKEN ONE-POT



Cajun chicken one-pot image

Make a crowd-pleasing pasta dish for dinner. We've taken inspiration from creamy alfredo sauce with Cajun-style seasoning to add a bit of punch.

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tbsp olive oil
400g chicken breasts, chopped into large chunks
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped or grated
2 tbsp Cajun-style seasoning
400g can chopped tomatoes or passata
1 chicken stock cube, crumbled
500g penne or another tube- shaped pasta
150ml double cream
20g parmesan, finely grated, plus extra to serve
½ lemon, juiced
chopped parsley, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, shallow saucepan or deep frying pan over a medium heat, then add the chicken, season lightly and fry for 6-8 mins, stirring occasionally until just golden all over - no need to worry about it being cooked through at this stage.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for 2 mins more, then scatter over the Cajun-style seasoning and stir so the chicken pieces are evenly coated. Tip in the tomatoes, a quarter of a can of water and the stock cube. Stir, then bring to a simmer and cook for 5 mins.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta for a minute less than pack instructions. Stir the cream into the chicken and continue to simmer gently. When the pasta is cooked, drain well and stir into chicken mixture. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce over a low heat for 2 mins, then stir in the parmesan and lemon juice, and cook for 1 min more. Serve the pasta straight from the pan, or tip into a large serving bowl. Scatter with parsley, if you like, and extra parmesan.
