A delightful twist on the classic Cajun Chicken Alfredo, this recipe combines creamy pasta with a spicy kick, perfect for a comforting meal.
Coat the chicken with Cajun seasoning in a bowl.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated for consistent flavor.
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken until browned and cooked through.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Add the green onions to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream and seasonings. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
Stir continuously to avoid curdling the cream.
Meanwhile, cook the linguine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Reserve some pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency if needed.
Combine the cooked linguine with the sauce and toss to coat evenly.
Use tongs to mix the pasta and sauce thoroughly.
Serve the pasta topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
Garnish with additional green onions or parsley for a fresh touch.
