Cajun Chicken & Pasta
This kicked-up pasta dish is a family favorite and my most requested recipe. It's easy to adapt, too. Swap in shrimp for the chicken, add your favorite veggies, adjust the spice level to your family's taste—you can't go wrong! —Dolly Kragel, Smithland, Iowa

I used angel hair instead of penne, it's just my personal preference. To keep it on the lighter side, I used half and half instead of heavy cream. So many great textures and flavors. Minus the pasta, it makes a great wrap too!
My family loves this dish. If it's too hot add less cajun seasoning. We add double the vegetables, cream and seasonings.
One of my best delicious dish. Many times I made it and enjoy the dish with my family members. Especially sauce of this dish is really tasty. When I made it I used fresh cream it gives good taste and good looking.
I love this pasta! I’ve made t several times now. It’s easy to prepare and has great flavor. I do add less Cajun seasoning for my taste, about 2 teaspoons instead of 3. It does get a little spicy with 3. The cream is great with the spice and helps cool it some.
I can't believe that no one has rated this recipe. Maybe it's just a computer glitch. This is so easy and tasty, no wonder it won the best recipe contest. This is a definite keeper and we'll be having it often.
