Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Season both sides of the chicken tenders with Cajun seasoning. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken tenders and cook on each side for 5-6 minutes or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached. Remove to a cutting board and set aside to cool.
2. Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté and until translucent and fragrant. Add 1 Tbsp of Cajun seasoning and stir to combine.
3. Add the chicken broth, can of diced tomatoes (liquid from the can included), heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low to simmer.
4. Add the dry pasta and stir to combine. Continue to simmer until the noodles are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking to the bottom.
5. Add the parmesan cheese and stir to combine. Slice the chicken into bite sized pieces and add to the Dutch oven. Stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and continue to heat for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is warmed through.
6. Spoon into bowls and garnish with green onion and parmesan cheese. Serve warm and enjoy!
