Skillet Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta

Have you noticed over the years you’ve changed your taste for certain foods? In the last couple years I realize I like Cajun seasoning. In fact, every morning I put a little on top of my hard boiled egg for breakfast. Looking around for a Cajun seasoned chicken recipe I found this on on food .com. I’m looking forward to trying it. It looks really easy. Let me know if you do in comments. Serves 2  Need 4 servings, double ingredients. Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into thin strips
4 ounces linguine, cooked al dente
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (your recipe, Cajun Seasoning Mix or store-bought)
2 tablespoons butter
1 thinly sliced green onion
1⁄2 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon dried basil
1⁄8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1⁄8 teaspoon garlic powder
GARNISH 1⁄4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

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. Easy Peasy!
