Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta

This is a pretty simple recipe to get together and a family favorite. At the end of the last deployment Phil made this was the dinner he was asking for! 


3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips

1 pound linguine , cooked al dente

1 1/2 tablespoons cajun seasoning

2 tablespoons butter

4 thinly sliced green onions

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1 cubed tomato

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon dried basil

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Place chicken and Cajun seasoning in a bowl and toss to coat.

In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté chicken in butter or margarine until chicken is tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Reduce heat add green onion, heavy cream, tomatoes, basil, salt, garlic powder, black pepper and heat through.

Pour over hot linguine and toss with Parmesan cheese.
