Cajun Chicken Linguine
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min.
YIELD: 2 servings.
Our pasta began as a special, but due to its overwhelming popularity, we made it a permanent part of our menu. In the 9 years we've been open, we have become a favorite restaurant with locals and travelers alike because our food is not typical hotel fare.—Monroe Street Grille, Tallahassee, Florida
