  • Author: Emma Carter
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 8 oz fettuccine pasta
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 2 tablespoons butter
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Cajun Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook the Fettuccine: Boil water in a large pot and add salt. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle Cajun seasoning evenly over the chicken breasts. Make sure to coat both sides thoroughly.
3. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well.
5. Add Cheese: Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is creamy and smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
6. Combine: Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss it in the sauce until well coated.
7. Slice Chicken: Slice the cooked chicken into strips and arrange it on top of the fettuccine.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top for a fresh finish.
