Ingredients:
3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (just depends on the size)
4 ounces of fettuccine
Cajun Seasoning:
- 2 tbsp of seasoning salt (or regular salt)
- 1 tsp of cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp of garlic powder
- 1 tsp of onion powder
- 1 tsp of paprika
- 1 tsp of pepper
4 tbsp of butter
1/4 cup of chopped green onion
1/4 cup of chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup of chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup of chopped tomatoes (or sun dried tomatoes)
2 cups of heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp of salt
1/4 tsp of basil
1/8 tsp of garlic powder
1/8 tsp of pepper
1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup of Monterrey jack cheese
Directions:
Boil a pot of water for the noodles. Add the noodles, make sure to cook thoroughly or cook them to al dente. I don't like those words 'Al Dente' but a lot of people like there noodles that way, which by the way it means that the noodles will be a little chewier.
Take the chicken breasts and rub the Cajun seasoning all over them until there is a good coat of it on each side.
In a large skillet place the butter and turn the flame to medium heat. Allow the butter to melt before adding the chicken breasts, then turn the stove to low-medium heat allowing the chicken to saute properly and cook all the way through it should take only 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove the chicken and set aside for later. Add in the onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, heavy cream, parmesan, monterey jack cheese, pepper, basil, salt and garlic.
Cook the sauce through so that it is a good consistency. Allowing all the flavors to develop.
At this point, just taste the sauce, guarantee you will be so impressed with yourself. It was at this moment I realized how amazing this recipe was going to turn out.
Now drain the noodles in a colander. Server yourself up a bowl. I like to layer mine noodles, sauce, chicken, noodles, sauce, chicken.
If you don't love this recipe you are absolutely nuts!P.S.
The only thing that I regret about this recipe is not making a bread to accompany it.
