Cajun Chicken Pasta









** Recipe from Blog Chef **

* 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into small strips)
* 4 oz. linguini (cooked all dente)
* 2 tsp. Cajun seasoning
* 2 Tbl. butter
* 1 green onion (thinly sliced)
* 2 c. heavy whipping cream
* 2 Tbl. sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
* ¼ tsp. salt
* ¼ tsp. dried basil
* 1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
* 1/8 tsp. garlic powder
* ¼ c. parmesan cheese

Place chicken strips and Cajun seasoning in a bowl, toss the chicken with the seasoning until the chicken strips evenly coated with the seasoning.  In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add chicken and sauté the chicken for 5-7 min. or until the chicken is fully cooked (the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees).  Reduce heat to low. Add green onions, heavy cream, tomatoes, basil, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Cook until heated through. Pour over hot linguini and toss with parmesan cheese.
(Makes 2 Servings)
